Description
The K6 Telephone Kiosk, designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1935 and produced from 1936 to 1968, is a standard telephone kiosk featuring three sides of lying-pane glazing with eight panes high. It includes narrow margin lights, and one glazed side has a cup handle aligned with the fourth and fifth panes, which forms the door. The rear has a blind cast-iron panel that holds the telephone and a shelf. Each side displays a rectangular glass opal with the word "TELEPHONE" in black lettering, a vent below, and a central embossed crown on top. The kiosk rises into four segmental-headed pediments that culminate in a saucer dome. It is made of cast iron and painted in Post Office red, and is located next to a waterfall on the road leading to Carsaig Pier.
