Leabrooks Telephone Exchange
Situated in Mill Lane off the B6016 Greenhill Lane, this TE would appear to date from the 1970s or thereabouts, and would have replaced a smaller building in the same locality. It has the code EMLEABR and provides telephone and broadband services to 8,935 residential 367 non-residential premises in Leabrooks, plus Ironville, Jacksdale, Riddings, Somercotes and Swanwick nearby. It is perhaps unfortunate that this building doesn't have a more prepossessing appearance, although as it is down a side road adjacent to other industrial premises, one could be forgiven for thinking that it is actually located in the area. Three red rubbish containers and four BT Openreach vehicles can be seen in this photo. Also, a black letterbox can just be seen to the left of the photo by the black gate although it probably wouldn't get much post apart from council tax and electricity bills to pay for the considerable cost of running this TE. The numbering range of this TE is (01773) 60xxxx, the (01773) referring to the Ripley group of nine TEs, and its postcode is DE55 4EX.
