Payphone and Cash Machine - Briggate, Leeds



I am always surprised when I see a public payphone on the street, because I and I think all my friends have mobiles. These days you rarely see anyone using a payphone. I saw this payphone/cash machine on Briggate adjacent to McDonald's, perhaps this is a way for companies to cross subsidise them.

This is not post I had planned for today, I left my laptop at a friends in error so have had to use a photo from my memory stick.

  1. Now that's a very efficient use of space. But I do like the old red telephone boxes so much better!

  2. Pay phones are vanishing from here as well.

  3. I think I would get very claustrophobic in there!

  4. I got on the bus that passes our house today (only one an hour) and as it turned into the avenue asked the driver to drop me off by the telephone and lo and behold it wasn't there!

    I'm sure it was there yesterday!
