K6 Telephone Kiosk, Regent Road

The K6 telephone kiosk on Regent Road was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1935 and produced between 1936 and 1968. This standard K6 kiosk features three sides of lying-pane glazing with eight panes high and narrow margin lights. One glazed side has a cup handle aligned with the fourth and fifth panes, which form the door. The rear of the kiosk 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 structure rises into four segmental-headed pediments that culminate in a saucer dome. The kiosk is made of cast iron and is painted in Post Office red.
