Village communications, Norney Road

The K6 telephone box stands beside a Victorian reign postbox. In 1935, the Post Office commissioned a new kiosk from Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to celebrate the Jubilee of King George V. The K6 Jubilee Kiosk, as it is known, was similar to the K2 box, being made of cast iron and painted red but was 25% lighter in weight. By the end of the 1930s there were 20,000 K6 telephone boxes in use all over the UK. There is an Ordnance Survey bench mark on the side of the postbox.

Field near Coulston

Sizable open fields alternate in this area with small bocage-like meadows, usually by watercourses, as in this case. There are small streams along both sides of this field, and they eventually flow into the Semington Brook. View from a train on the main line between Pewsey and Westbury.

Trees along field boundary, Great Cheverell

Taken from a passing train on the main railway line between Westbury and Pewsey, hence the poor quality. The trees to the right are in ST9755, as is the barn to the left of the nearest oak.
