DO we really need to have the four red public phone boxes kept outside Bolton’s Market Place?
Dramatic development plans for the Market Place, including a cinema and restaurants, mean the familiar phone boxes on Bridge Street need to be shifted. They’re not in use but do have Grade II listed status.
Perhaps a move near Fred Dibnah’s statue on Oxford Street might be a good idea, but they’ll have to clean up  the mill-wheel next to it first. Then this could become an historic spot for local folk and visitors alike
