Funding for the box's upkeep lapsed between 2000-2005 and it fell into some disrepair. The Metropolitan Police has since taken up the costs again, recognising its role as a community icon.- Opened in 1996, police box is based on the Mackenzie Trench design familiar to Londoners during the 1960s. It was equipped with CCTV cameras and a telephone to contact the police.
Namer MerliDecember 28, 2012This police box was introduced as part of a ‘high tech’ revival of the system in 1996 that never took off and is therefore the only remaining box in London.- Stuart BellJuly 10, 2016Look at this police box with Street View on Google Maps. You can go inside, and you may be surprised by its size...
ᴡ WhiteJuly 21, 2014I swear this wasn't here yesterday. Now people are saying it has been here since 1996, even though there are no others... The chameleon circuit my be broken but the perception filter certainly is.
Christopher MillerAugust 25, 2013Careful where you park in the area. Police sweep in like vultures on tourists.
- Molotov CupcakeNovember 19, 2020Hätte eigentlich die erste von vielen werden sollen. Es blieb aber bei der einen und so wirkt diese Box mehr wie eine nerdige Sehenswürdigkeit (TARDIS aus Doctor Who) Aber genau deshalb sehr cool!
Anselmo Toshio MatsukuraFebruary 22É um marco de Earls Court, quem é mais antigo e gosta do tema mais Geek, não dá para perder, fica bem na porta da estação mesmo.
