Petition launched to save Tadley’s red telephone box
But town council says it needs a buyer to take on upkeep

A PETITION has been launched to save a traditional red phone box in Tadley that has been earmarked for sale.
As reported in the Newbury Weekly News last week, Tadley Town Council is looking to sell the phone box on Hartshill Road – calling for bids in sealed envelopes to the council’s office by noon on March 31.
However, the decision to sell the booth has caused controversy among Tadley citizens, with many calling for it to be converted into something more useful, such as a book swap or defibrillator site.
