Story
Hillview Road Phone Kiosk Restoration Project
We have been given the wonderful opportunity of turning a retired red K6 telephone box, into a space that can be used for the whole community of Irby on the wirral.. Lots of discussion has taken place, and it has been decided before an ultimate use has been decided. The box needs to be cleaned, primed and repainted. We are prepared to do the work needed but materials will cost.
Restoring and making ship-shape the telephone box obviously incurs some cost. So please give generously towards this worthy community project.
**** We are now hoping to replace the windows as well ***

Ken Burnley, who got the ball rolling for the restoration of this lovely old phonebox, is delighted with response to the appeal for help with its refurbishment. Work on the box has now started, and we hope to get it painted and if the donations will allow new Windows :-)
