Hiding under the lid is one of the two coin-operated stamp dispensers, and some spiders & other muck.

The K4 Telephone Box at Whitley Bay.

One of a very tiny group of survivors from what was only a limited production run. Designed in 1927 to combine a normal call box with some Post Office functions, specifically stamp vending and a post box.
Grade II listed, and due for renovation since permission was obtained in 2022 [a local community group are seeking funds] as part of a wider scheme.

The K4 Telephone Box at Whitley Bay. It does look in need of *some* tlc, at the very least, a good wash down - the paint underneath all that muck actually looks OK at first glance.

No phone & chained up because of vandalism problems.
