Parish councillors in North Sunderland have voiced no objection to the proposed removal of a public phone box.

BT is consulting on the removal of 79 phone boxes across Northumberland, including one in North Sunderland.

Coun Sylvia Hillan said: "The last time BT made this proposal we asked for it to be kept because mobile phone signals weren't very good. That's not the case now."

A phone box in the main car park in Seahouses is not included on the list for removal.
