Red Telephone Box, Tideswell Situated between Fountain Street and Queen Street in the centre of Tideswell, this K6 telephone box is unusual that the words above the glass panes are "History" and "Tideswell" instead of "Telephone" as one can no longer make phone calls from this box, but listen to items of history covering Tideswell instead. The postcode of this telephone box is SK17 8JX.
