Description
The K6 telephone kiosk in Badby is a standard design made of cast iron and painted red. It features long horizontal glazing in the door and sides, with crowns on the top panels that are applied rather than perforated. There are rectangular white display signs reading "TELEPHONE" beneath the shallow curved roof. The kiosk has modernised internal equipment. Although the paint has faded, it retains all its glass panes. The kiosk is clearly visible from three nearby Grade II listed buildings: Park House, The Cottage, and Wayside. It is also located in front of a late 19th to early 20th century red-brick post office, which is unlisted, and has an important contextual relationship with it.
