AA Roadside Telephone Boxes (Box 362 Pebble Hill, Betchworth, Surrey) This is a list of AA roadside telephone boxes that were in use and constructed up to 1962. Though the number series runs to 925, there are only 862 phone boxes listed, and a few breaks in the number series. We don't know whether some of these boxes were ever constructed. Some earlier phone boxes were relocated but retained their existing numbers. By the early 1960s no more traditional boxes were being built and now only 19 remain, eight of which are Grade II listed buildings.
