K8 Telephone Call Box to west side of Erskine Bridge

There are two K8 public telephone kiosks located at the south end of Erskine Bridge in Renfrewshire. Designed by Bruce Martin for the General Post Office in 1965, the K8 kiosk was produced until 1983. Two additional K8 kiosks, which are listed separately, can be found at the northeast end of the bridge.

These kiosks are made of cast iron with an aluminium door featuring a recessed handle, all painted in 'Red 539'. Three sides, including the door, are fitted with large single sheets of toughened glass in rectangular frames with rounded corners. The solid back panels are shaped to match the dimensions of the glazing. Each kiosk has a cill ring between the main body and the flat roof section, with the corners of the roof sections tilted back slightly. Illuminated TELEPHONE signs are set into each face of the roof. The doors are equipped with brass hinges and leather straps. Inside, each kiosk contains 'pay on answer' telephone equipment and an integrated shelf unit.
