Description

The K6 telephone kiosk, designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, is likely to have been moved to its current location around 1985. It features a cast-iron frame with a timber door and has a square plan. The kiosk is painted red and has long horizontal glazing in the door and sides. There are rectangular white display signs that read ‘TELEPHONE’ and applied crowns located beneath the shallow-curved roof. The south side retains a hardwood door, although the door handle has been replaced. The telephone equipment was removed in the early 21st century. This kiosk is situated on the east side of St Andrew’s Street, just outside the boundary wall of Emmanuel College and approximately 15 meters north-west of Belmont.
