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, which have been painted gold, 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*. The glass panes survive, although a few panes to the NW elevation appear to be frosted replacements.
The kiosk stands in the centre of Milton Combe, situated next to a bridge crossing Milton Brook. The kiosk stands within sight of several listed buildings. It stands facing the Church of the Holy Spirit (Grade II-listed) 10m to the SW, and is in sight of Gladisford Cottage (Grade II) 25m to NW. The kiosk is also situated 10m NW from the bridge crossing Milton Brook (Grade II). The telephone kiosk has a strong visual relationship with these three listed buildings collectively.
