Bewdley Station: external view with K4 telephone box
The K4 phone box is a very rare sight; only 50 were built (in 1930) and only 5 are said to remain. The design incorporates a post box and 2 stamp dispensers, not visible here, see: LinkExternal link . This example has a pre-trunk-dialling phone complete with 'A' and 'B' buttons so is obviously not in use! In fact the box has been moved here from elsewhere but nevertheless is a Gr II listed object.
