Here’s one that Mum and Dad found in Wales.
(Coordinates 53°21’32.0″N, 3°35’47.8″W.)
A defibrillator box – always good to see this kind of re-use.

Here’s a phone box from the village where we were staying in May for my friend Sharpy’s stag do. It was a glorious weekend (suspiciously so for Scotland in May; my suspicions were justified when the heavens opened while we were waiting for chips at the chippy van) and I had a lovely short walk down the road to photograph this box.
(Coordinates 56°46’77.5″N, 4°31’79.2″W.)
This phone box is right next to a pub, so probably more of a pleasant item of décor these days!
Here’s another one that Geth and I found in Scotland in May.
(Coordinates 56°52’89.0″N, 4°15’20.7″W.)
This one stands outside the Ben Lawers Hotel, which possibly explains the chalk advert board for a ‘Scottish Music Session this Friday’ that’s sitting inside the box.
Here’s another box from my nice post-parkrun drive with Geth in Scotland back in May!
(Coordinates 56°58’49.6″N, 4°00’03.6″W.)
This one is a bit neglected, but the overgrowth is quite pretty (or it was on a sunny day in May, anyway).
Geth and I found this one while on our own Scottish adventures. It’s in Aberfeldy Caravan Park, just off the A827.
(Coordinates 56°62’23.1″N, 3°85’78.1″W.)
It seems to be acting as a nice decoration for the caravan park more than anything else!
More from Scotland next week.
Mum and Dad revisited the General Wade’s Military Road phone box in May.
It’s still pretty tatty (and phoneless), but at least it’s still standing!
More from Scotland next week.
Still in Scotland – here’s a more remote one.
(Coordinates 56°88’66.4″N, 4°70’96.3″W.)
Dad reports that the phone is still intact!
A really nice setting, too.
Here’s another Scottish one that Mum and Dad found.
(Coordinates 57°47’32.1″N, 6°33’85.9″W.)
This one is next to a former post office that is seemingly being adapted for other purposes. The phone box itself is a defibrillator box, which is nice to see.
Here’s another phone box on Skye.
(Coordinates 57°47’52.2″N, 6°42’63.8″W.)
This one has a bonus bench as well, which my running club might appreciate if they’re reading!
No phone though. It looks like this might be a decorative one.
Here’s a fairly remote duo from the island of Raasay! Bonus sighting of Dad’s reflection in the glass doors.
(Coordinates 57°34’57.0″N, 6°06’56.8″W.)
No phones in these boxes and no alternative use as yet. Nice to see them out in the islands though!
