Located outside 50 Honor Road HP16 0NL, this KX200 kiosk has a notice inside it indicating that it is due to be taken out shortly due to lack of usage. From its appearance, it looks to have seen better days in the past, so its disappearance may not be any great loss, particularly since most people nowadays have mobile phones to communicate with. Update: the telephone kiosk has since been removed from this location.

1970's terraced houses here.
