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. The internal equipment is modernised. The kiosk's display signs above the doors are clearly visible, although faded and discoloured, and the paint is flaking across the kiosk. It retains glass windows.
The telephone kiosk occupies a prominent position on Elkington Lane. It is located approximately 42 metres north east of Bridge Cottage (NHLE 1229264, listed Grade II) and 105 metres east of the Old Orphanage (NHLE 1229678, listed Grade II), and it is surrounded by the scheduled site of Winwick Medieval Settlement (NHLE 1418336) which is defined by two areas of protection.
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.
