RED PUBLIC TELEPHONE BOX, KENSINGTON, LONDON, BRITAIN
The Death of the Red Telephone Box
THE DEATH OF THE RED TELEPHONE BOX
It looks like the line is about to go dead on the humble red telephone box.
The British icon looks set to go the great telephone exchange in the sky when nearly 10,000 non-profitable payphones disappear as British Telecom cuts costs.
It means that, in the age of mobile phones, free call offers from home phones and the rise of email, the familiar call box could become a rare sight on British streets.
First installed in 1935, the boxes were painted red to match British Army tunics and have since become a must-have picture opportunity for every visitor to the UK.
But due to the decline in use, it looks like the last ring for many of them, especially in rural areas.
One box in London's Parliament Square is literally only used by tourists to capture a quintessentially British souvenir snap.
And BT recently revealed that one red box at Wixoe, near Sudbury, had only been used ONCE in a year. But locals were incensed when it was earmarked for removal.
David Smith, secretary of the parish meeting, echoed local feeling when he said the phone could go but the box must stay. He said: "We realise it is going to go as a public telephone. We just don't want the box to go - it is a landmark, part of the village. It has stood on the corner for 50 years and we are prepared to take on looking after it."
Thankfully, almost 3,000 of the UK's remaining 13,000 classic red booths have been listed for their heritage value and cannot be removed even if they are disconnected.
It may be the last call for a pay phone on every corner - but there's life in the old red telephone box yet.
