This just popped up on my FaceBook feed,as soon as I saw it I thought of the video for My Precious One.
Barney has also confirmed with me it’s the same place.

Located next to a Surrey railway track, lies an incredible site in the form of the nation's largest 'telephone box graveyard'.After once being a famous aspect of London and the rest of the country, culture all over the world, the red telephone box has become at risk of being an endangered species.They became a common site on British corners during the 20th century but inevitably the introduction of mobile phones led to its decline from the 1980s onwards. Unicorn Restorations of Merstham proudly restore these iconic boxes back to their former glory following a period of them rusting away.Staff spend up to 30 hours stripping each old kiosk, repainting them in the identical shades of red once stipulated by the General Post Office and putting in new glass to complete the look, at the site just outside Redhill. Once rejuvenated, they sell for a variety of prices ranging from just under £4,000 to as much as £20,000, with the price being higher for the older designs.
These include the three classic models of red telephone kiosk: the K2, the K6 and the K8.
