HC Deb 18 October 1966 vol 734 c31W
Sir Knox Cunningham

asked the Postmaster-General what were his reasons for removing the public telephone box from the junction of Craven Road with Chelsfield Lane in Orpington; and if he will state the distance from this point to the nearest public telephone.

Mr. Joseph Slater

This kiosk was removed because the revenues from it had been very low for several years, possibly because most of the houses in the vicinity have private telephones. The nearest public telephone is three-quarters of a mile away, outside Chelsfield Village Post Office.
