Description

The telephone call box on High Street in Aberdour is a standard K6 telephone kiosk designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1935 and produced between 1936 and 1968. It 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 pane, which forms the door, while the rear has a blind cast-iron panel that holds the telephone and a shelf. Each side of the kiosk 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 terminate in a saucer dome. The kiosk is made of cast iron and is painted in Post Office red.
