K6 Telephone Kiosk outside St Peter's Terrace

The K6 telephone kiosk, designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, is located outside St Peter's Terrace. This standardised kiosk is made of cast iron and is painted red overall. It features long horizontal glazing on the door and sides, with crowns applied to the top panels rather than perforated. There are rectangular white display signs reading "TELEPHONE" beneath the shallow curved roof.

The kiosk is in good overall condition and retains its telephone equipment as of the 2021 assessment for listing. It is situated at the end of Grove Lane, at the junction with Trumpington Street, within the Cambridge Historic Core Central Conservation Area. The kiosk is surrounded by listed buildings on all sides. To the south, it faces the mid-19th century 1-7 St Peter’s Terrace, which is listed at Grade II, along with the separately listed gates and railings to St Peter’s Terrace. To the east, there is a 17th century timber-framed house at 21 Trumpington Street, and a row of early-19th century houses at numbers 13-14, 15-16, 17, and 18-19, all listed at Grade II and forming a historic group. East of the kiosk are listed “Richardson candles” bespoke lampposts, also Grade II, and the runnels of Hobson’s Conduit, which is a historic water supply to the city and is listed at Grade II. To the immediate north-east of the kiosk is the listed Judge Business School, which was formerly the old Addenbrooke’s hospital, converted in the 1980s in a post-modern style and listed at Grade II*, along with its separately listed gates, gatepiers, and railings. Additionally, there is another K6 telephone kiosk listed at Grade II outside the old Addenbrooke’s hospital.
