Description
K6 telephone kiosk, designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott.
The K6 is a standardised design made of cast iron, painted red overall with long horizontal glazing to the door and sides, and with the crowns situated on the top panels being applied not perforated. There are rectangular white display signs, reading TELEPHONE beneath the shallow curved roof.
The kiosk is in good overall condition and survives well, although it leans slightly out of perpendicular. The internal equipment has been modernised.
It is located in its original position adjacent to the village hall (unlisted) in the centre of the village of Crowan and in close proximity to the Church of St Crewenna (Grade II*), the churchyard walls and gate piers (Grade II), and the Grade II-listed Rakaia and Crewenna Cottages, all of which it has a strong visual relationship with.
