Today we’re looking at the second of the three Shap phone boxes.
(Coordinates 54.5258808N, 2.6744523W.)
Judging by the sign, this is (or at least was at some point) a modified phone box facility with a basic computer for email purposes. There used to be one of those at the bottom of Sciennes, Edinburgh, which I used a lot when I was living in the Sciennes student flats (which were the ONE block of university flats that hadn’t had internet put in by 2003). The Sciennes one was a KX series box, but it’s good to see that the classic K6s were at least temporarily used for this purpose as well.
We finish our Shap stop next week.
