Description
The K6 is a standardised design made of cast iron, painted red overall with long horizontal glazing in 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. It has modernised internal equipment.
This telephone kiosk display signs above the doors are still relatively clear, the paint appears to be in good condition and it retains the glass window panels. It stands on a point on Irsha Street where the alignment of the road changes sharply and the buildings face onto the estuary of the River Torridge. It stands 14m to the east of No. 73 (listed Grade II), and 22m from No 72a Irsha Street (listed Grade II).The kiosk has a strong visual relationship with both of these listed buildings.
Pursuant to s. 1 (5A) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 it is declared that the modern telecommunications equipment within the K6 is not of special architectural or historic interest.
