Standing Out

The phasing out of traditional red phone boxes is something of a shame, getting replaced by the more modern looking boxes (if replaced at all) but many villages in Lincolnshire, including the village of South Willingham where I took this photo, still have them.

South Willingham is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It lies 8 miles south-east from Market Rasen and 10 miles north from Horncastle and Louth respectively.

South Willingham was recorded in the Domesday Book as "Ulingeham" and was a railway station on the Great Northern Railway branch line from Bardney to Louth. The station closed in the 1950s.

I took this photo in colour then turned it black and and white and used selective colour for the post box and phone box.
