Description
The K6 telephone kiosk on High Street in Rayleigh is a standard design made of cast iron, painted red. It features long horizontal glazing in the door and sides, with crowns applied to the top panels rather than being perforated. There are rectangular white display signs that read "TELEPHONE" beneath the shallow-curved roof. The kiosk retains its original glazing in the door and one side, although some panels have been replaced with perspex. It is currently used as a local council information point and no longer contains a telephone. The paintwork is faded.
This kiosk is prominently located in the historic center of Rayleigh, next to a postbox set in a freestanding brick pillar, which is unlisted. It is part of a strong visual grouping with the nearby Lloyds Bank and The Crown Public House, both listed at Grade II. Along with other historic listed structures in the area, such as the Horse Trough and Drinking Fountain, Martyrs Memorial Obelisk, and Town Pump, all also listed at Grade II, the kiosk contributes significantly to the streetscape.
