Used that phone a lot! The Point's link to the outside world.
An added feature at the same locale was the makeshift slide in winter if we got a
good freeze. Good times.

behind the 'phone box.?

Never knew they had to do this.

I used to make calls to England from the
'Phone Box at the Park.
I remember the door seemed like it
weighed a ton.
