Description

The K6 Telephone Kiosk on Hope Street in Inverkeithing 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 side has a glazed door with a cup handle aligned with the fourth and fifth panes, while the rear has a blind cast-iron panel that holds the telephone and a shelf. Each side displays a rectangular glass opal sign 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.
