Telephone booths in England, are another of the many distinctive features and elements that make this country particularly unique and especially the city of London. The Red Kiosk Telephone, as it is also known, was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott at the request of the Post Office in 1924.
The first of these Telephone booths in England was known simply by the name of "K2", referring to the "K" for "Kiosk", English word for newsstand. One of the main characteristics of this type of cabin is that they were too expensive to be used nationally, so they were exclusively produced exclusively for the city of London.
Currently, all K2 kiosks found on the streetThey are classified as buildings and of course are part of the tourist attractions of the city. In the year 1935 and to commemorate The Silver Jubilee of King George VSir Giles Gilbert Scott designed the first telephone booth to be installed for use across the country, the K6.
Although this kiosk was somewhat smaller than the K2, actually kept practically the same design features and the traditional red color. Today you can see modern telephone booths in England, in black, many of which have a dome-shaped roof and even in many cases Internet service is offered so that users can browse the web.
