Description

The K2 telephone kiosk, located opposite the junction with Falmouth Road on the south side of New Kent Road, was designed by Giles Gilbert Scott and built in 1927. This square kiosk is made of cast iron and features a domed roof, with perforated crowns on the top panels and glazing bars on the windows and doors. At the time of the survey, the kiosk had been vandalised and was missing its door.
