Description

The K6 telephone kiosk, built in 1935 by Giles Gilbert Scott, is located adjacent to the westernmost of a group of four kiosks to the north of the Royal Courts of Justice in the City of Westminster. This kiosk is made of cast iron and features an intact square design typical of the K6 type, with a domed roof, unperforated crowns on the top panels, and margin glazing on the windows and door. It is part of a symmetrical arrangement that includes two K2 kiosks and two K6 kiosks outside the Royal Courts of Justice.
