What would you like to see in Seaton Hole telephone box?

Seaton residents are being asked for ideas on how to use a now redundant telephone box in the town.

The traditional red telephone box at Seaton Hole is now considered redundant along with most in the country, and was transferred to the ownership of Seaton Town Council for a nominal £1 last year.

Telephone boxes across the country have been converted into everything from libraries and planters to defibrillator units and even miniature art galleries.

The council is now seeking ideas from residents on how the Seaton Hole telephone box may be repurposed in the future.

Councillors would be particularly interested in any ideas from local artists and creative individuals.

Ideas shared on social media so far include using it as a seed swap, book swap, to house a defibrillator, as a mini coffee kiosk or as a noticeboard for local information.

Another idea is to install an old phone with a number to dial for recorded local information, history and and facts about the Jurassic Coast.

If you have any other ideas you can send them to the town clerk by emailing [email protected]
