53.7 here. And rather old overhead telephone cable with telegraph poles to
the cabinet - quite rare in London.


Not as rare as you might think!

When we lived in the Ilford area, BT cables were underground
but onl;y a couple of hundred metres away it was all overhead.

In fact, a large part of the London Borough of Redbridge is
still overhead cables and telegraph poles. I'm sure it is not
unique!
