Just found this in my ramblings. The file when copied says "Old Broad Street Police Telephone Box"
From this page: https://memoirsofametrogirl.com/2012/06/14/police-telephone-boxes-posts-london/

EDIT: I've just noticed it says do not copy without permission, so I've removed the picture, but you can plainly see it on the above page.

Broadwick Street in Soho is still sometimes called Broad Street. The "Old" before Broad Street is important, as it refers to a street in the Square Mile.

I'm sure we have this post in our database somewhere but in the meantime, Google Maps link:

Next time I'm in the area I'll make sure to see this post and take some pictures.
