    Default ROC - BT Engineer Plans

    I got these the other day from a retired GPO/BT Engineer. The plans are in excellent original condition and relate to pre teletalk posts!

    These particular plans were still in there original folder and relate to Woolverstone Post, Suffolk. Now sadly no longer with us as its been demolished.
    Apparently the room still exists below the carpark which now covers it over!





    There are a number of other wiring documents relating to the pre 68 closure period. Basically all of the material that a GPO engineer would have needed when visiting a post!

    I have got to much to be honest! But every time I hear of something being thrown out I get it in my head to save it!!

    I got a lot of UK Civil Defence diagrams the other day, date from the 1960's of e/bay for £10.00.









    Have a lot more but don't want to bore the pants off you all!
