This challenge sucks, LOL, I know of a phone booth in some ones front driveway, made a mental note where it was, so if it came up, I`m golden. ( old Red Metal English type, I think ) and now I`m buried in snow. Damnit. (J/K Great challenge, just bad timing for me. ) Well if it`s still around in a few days, weeks, I can get it. RIDE SAFE all

Good find, but No Smoking in a phone booth? That is a bit much government, IMO.

Excellent! Good find, good challenge!

For those interested, the cost of a local call from the above phone booth is 60 pence, or U.S. .73 cents.
Interesting!

Speaking of "Find", you would have rode and looked for a while to find that particular phone booth!

Apart from the fact it is in my village. It's true that there are not many functioning phone boxes left, but some have been re-purpoused as Defibrillator stations, or take a book, leave a book mini libraries.

Yep, they are going the way of the do do bird.
I know where one is by the road in front of a gas station. It has a very long cord on it, where you can use it from your car. It is still in service, and has been there at least 30 years. I remember seeing cars lined up to use it!
I once considered an offer to buy a route of payphones, glad I didn't!
