A visual exploration of the famous Edinburgh and Glasgow police boxes. Walking the streets of Edinburgh and Glasgow, a visitor will very likely encounter at least one of these cast-iron police boxes that remain scattered throughout the two cities. Originally designed as "small police stations", these one-room, cast-iron structures originally served as spaces for calling the main station, report-writing, or even as holding cells. Now these shelters have outlived their original purpose and are being re-used as coffee bars, art pop-up galleries, or just remain to serve as graffiti backers. Even though there are more police boxes in Edinburgh, visitors to Glasgow's few remaining ones will find it to have an uncanny resemblance to a particular vehicle used in the BBC's Doctor Who series. This book contains full-page photographs of a selection of the remaining Edinburgh and Glasgow police boxes together with locations and GPS coordinates that invite the savvy traveler to discover these structures as well.
