Short title | K4 phone box & NE26 412, Whitley Bay |
Image title | Information from heritage.elettra.co.uk: Introduced in 1927, the K4 telephone kiosk was half as large again as its predecessor. It combined a telephone kiosk with a Post Office; intended to be the first full-automated twenty-four hour postal service. Behind the kiosk there were two stamp machines and a postbox, illuminated by a lamp attached to an elongated domed roof.
The kiosk was rectangular in cross-section, the longer side sported an illuminated sign saying "Post Office" one shorter side "Stamps" and above the door "Telephone". It was christened the "Vermillion Giant" as the K4 proved too large for many streets, the stamp machines were excessively noisy during telephone conversations and the machines were not weather-proof. Ultimately the design proved unsuccessful and only fifty were ever produced. Only a handful remain in use, one of which can be seen as pictured above, outside Whitley Bay Metro Station. |
