Residents in Norfolk rally to save red phone box

Residents in Sharrington, Norfolk, are rallying to save their last red K6 phone box after BT announced plans to disconnect it due to low usage. The box was reportedly used only nine times last year. Around 30 villagers queued to use the phone box, emphasizing its importance for emergencies in an area with poor mobile signal. Local campaigner Derek Harris has led efforts to keep the box operational. BT stated that the phone box is among ten identified for removal based on usage and location criteria. The consultation period for the decision ended on February 19, 2025.
