Whilst use of the phone is very low, it actually provides a community benefit and a facility that could be used in an emergency. In fairly close proximity to the kiosk there are a number of elderly residents as well as a care home. The phone is the only one in the village that the parish council are of the view that the facility should be retained for emergency use.
