HC Deb 18 October 1950 vol 478 c252W
82. Brigadier Medlicott

asked the Postmaster-General if he is aware of the unsatisfactory mechanical condition of the telephone exchange at Great Witchingham, Norfolk; and if he will arrange for improved equipment to be made available in the near future.

Mr. Ness Edwards

The exchange itself is mechanically sound, and the difficulties derive mainly from interference by trees with the overhead wires. These are largely being replaced by insulated aerial cables and the work is expected to be finished in about three months. I am confident that the service will then be much improved.
