At 23m15s, Arthur receives a call from Ray who is in a phone box. According to original paperwork for this episode, this phone box was located on the corner of Speldhurst Road and Southfield Road which is directly opposite 'Lynn's Salon' that features later on in the episode. If you look carefully behind Ray's head you can see a wooden frame matches above the house doors on this street and it can only be assumed the square on the pavement in the more recent shot is the possible location where this box was.
