July 1990.
Sorry it's so poor, but this is part of the background of a photo of somebody who's shy!
Here's one on Rosedale Rd, Mossley Hill. Just off Allerton Rd, Mossley Hill
It's things like phone boxes, post boxes etc that give our streets character. So much character has been lost and is being lost across the country with the loss of old buildings and the felling of mature trees. It's about time we started restoring our streetscape and start putting more effort into the way things look.
Companies like LLDC are a great example of how to add character to our streets with high quality street materials, tree planting, quality lighting and installation of high quality fencing etc.

Have a close look at the phonebox in the background. I forget the model but its a very rare larger one like the TARDIS inside !,
Fond memories of phone boxes I was responsible for the painting and cleaning of them whist at BT in 1991/92. Even added an extra in the painting spec to pick out the crown in black!
Some in conservation areas are painted green!
I think BT donated one to Merseyside Museums , think its in the Juniper Street store.
Anyone remember the OAKHAM booths? those phones in like an OLD OAK HAM shaped box painted yellow (yuk)on a pole which were introduced in bad vandalism areas rather than a standard kiosk.

I had occasion to delete a number of the shots of the Portsmouth red telephone box that I photographed from my Flickr account and it was like watching the Tardis disappearing into the void!!!!
