Village scene, Keld A K6 telephone box stands beside the narrow road that passes the main part of the village. In 1935, the Post Office commissioned a new kiosk from Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to celebrate the Jubilee of King George V.

By the end of the 1930s there were 20,000 K6 telephone boxes in use all over the UK.
