These historic listed "K6" red phone box or “Jubilee” kiosks, commemorating the Silver Jubilee of the coronation of King George V. These boxes are 8'3" high and 3ft square. They were originally designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, who also designed Liverpool’s Anglican Cathedral, Battersea Power Station and Bankside Power Station now Tate Modern. Historic England have listed to preserve these iconic red kiosks, and many have transformed them to coffee shops, libraries, museums, bakeries, and defibrillators. In Cheltenham, 10 red phone boxes have been transformed into miniature art galleries, showcasing the work of local artists. Currently let out at £4,320 pa with mains electricity, no service charge or ground rent to pay.


Location:

The London Borough of Islington is a London borough in Inner London. A significant part of the southern section of the borough borders the City of London, with the area to the west bordering the London Borough of Camden. Upper Street is the main street of the Islington district of inner north London, and carries the A1 road. It begins at the junction of the A1 and Pentonville Road and City Road, and runs roughly northwards past Angel Underground station, then past the Business Design Centre, then splits at Islington Green, then past the Screen on the Green cinema, past Islington Town Hall, ending at Highbury & Islington tube station on Highbury corner, where the A1 carries on as Holloway Road. The southernmost 500 metres, from the junction to Islington Green, also known as Islington's High Street. It contains many fashionable shops, pubs, restaurants and theatres. The kiosk is located on the west side of Upper Street outside the entrance to Islington Square.


Accomodation:
