Phone Box Thursday: Bassenthwaite Lake Station, Cockermouth

A Cumbrian phone box today, from Mum and Dad’s travels earlier this year.

Red phone box, Bassenthwaite Lake Station, Cockermouth, 7th May 2025.

(Coordinates 54°66’74.5″N, 3°24’40.9″W.)

(You can’t see the phone box in the Street View image as it’s hidden by the edge of the building, but that’s where it is.)

This is a well-advertised defib box (it’s marked as a public-use defibrillator on Google Maps) and has been specially moved to the old railway station, as it’s not in its original place.

Phone Box Thursday: The Queen’s Walk, London

Geth and I found this one on a Sunday morning run along the Thames back in March.

Red phone box, The Queen’s Walk, London, 30th March 2025.

(Coordinates 51°50’85.8″N, 0°10’71.1″W.)

Not its original location, of course! The Google vehicles haven’t visited since 2014, which was long before Curzon Sea Containers moved into their current premises. It looks very nice as a decoration/advert though!

Back up north next week.
