A DISUSED phonebox in the heart of Pencaitland has been brought back to life by volunteers. The phonebox, at the junction of the village’s Main Street and Lempockwells Road, has become an informal swap shop over the last few years. The former BT phonebox has now been refurbished and repainted and new shelving added by a team of local volunteers led by carpenter and artisan Adrian Hickey. Ralph Averbuch, Pencaitland Community Council chairman, said: “We had been using the phonebox as an informal swap shop for years and thought it may be up for the chop when BT made another round of cuts of public phoneboxes.
