Richmond Road, Kingston Box

Hi All,

I've been very lucky in the last few days and stumbled on several new photo's (ok some are in the distance)
This one has got to be best "new" find and I think it's  V39 Richmond Road, east side 50 yards north of Durlston Road, Kingston (Jan 1957)
I've placed it here (rather than directly in the Met List section) so that either Alan or Mark can double check it for me.......8)

I'm sure there was another picture of a box with the door window on inside out, which is what this looks like to my eyes.

Another great picture, thanks Pete

Pete, I'm pretty sure it is V39 - the building behind is, i believe, part of whats now The Kingston Academy, and the open greenspace behind the box now houses the Fern Hill Primary School.
Very nice find.

V39 Box was actually 223 yds north of Durlston Road which agrees with above photo.

Not 50 yds as shown in records.

correct loc: 51.423989,-0.303664
