Cindy, there aren't too many of this style box left - they've become quite collectors items. But this is a very touristy-village, so you tend to find them in places like this.
Our modern boxes are pretty similar to your phone booths - boring steel boxes (often not fully enclosed). Phil

Your phone boxes are so much prettier than our phone booths. Nice textures in all of these. Cindy

My kids are learning to make phone calls the old fashioned way....from a phone box...since I had our home phone blocked from making calls to mobiles. Big kids, big phone bills, not happy mum!
Nice image, the best one out of your selection. I like the human figure and the splash of colour.
