Description
Freestanding moulded concrete telephone box, c. 1950, now disused. Painted walls, moulded concrete cap and plinth, with fixed small pane glazed panels and half-glazed timber door. Set into alcove formed by rendered walls.
Appraisal
An increasingly rare reminder of a time before the ubiquitous ownership of mobile phones, this well-kept telephone box is an interesting feature in the small village of Grange. The simple form is enhanced by the decorative lettering and the small panes of glazing.
