Field notes
The site says restoration involved stripping old paint, repainting, fitting working lights, and regular maintenance. Its supporter list includes Leighton-Linslade Town Council, the Leighton Buzzard Society, and local businesses. The project also mentions a possible future effort to adopt the phone box’s twin, but presents that as a hope rather than an existing feature.
