Description

The K6 telephone kiosk at Lippitts Hill Heavy Anti-Aircraft Gun Site is a standard design made of cast iron, typically painted red, although this particular example is grey-green. It features long horizontal glazing in the door and sides, with crowns on the top panels that are applied rather than perforated. There are rectangular white display signs reading "TELEPHONE" beneath the shallow-curved roof. The kiosk has modern internal telephony equipment, which is not considered of special interest and is excluded from the listing.

The display signs above the doors are clearly visible, but the green paint is peeling in places, revealing red underneath. The kiosk mainly retains its glass window panels, although some side panels have been replaced with Perspex. It is located adjacent to the south corner of the Spider Block, 27 meters south-west of the Mess Block, and 40 meters from the Commander's Office, all of which are listed at Grade II. The kiosk has a strong visual relationship with these three listed buildings.
