A TRADITIONAL British red telephone kiosk has found a new home across the English Channel in Stourport's twin town.

Stourport's mayor, councillor Stephen Clee, unveiled the restored kiosk as it was installed in Villeneuve-le-Roi.

"The idea came about last year when a delegation visited Villeneuve-le-Roi for their carnival weekend," said councillor Clee, who was accompanied by Stourport town councillor David Little at the installation.

"The French are delighted with the kiosk and we had a civic reception for 150 members of the council and residents."
