Description
The K6 telephone kiosk, designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, is a notable example of early 20th-century public architecture. Made from cast iron and glass, it features a square plan. The exterior includes a solid back panel with a glazed front door, which is hinged to the left, and side panels that each have eight horizontal strips of glass with narrow margin lights on either side. Above the glazed panel that displays the word 'TELEPHONE', there is a relief crown on each side of the segmental upper structure. The kiosk has a domed roof and is painted red.
This K6 kiosk was introduced to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V and is situated in a prominent location within the historic centre of Edith Weston, closely associated with several other listed buildings and structures.
