Wardlaw Street

Over the years I have passed this green box like contraption on Wardlaw Street and often wondered what it's use was.

Obviously abandoned and left to rot but I passed it again this afternoon and it is starting to bug me now.

It has up and down buttons on the side and looks like it opened up at one time.

Come on Kickbackers someone must know where this portal leadsScreenshot_20240420_175545_Maps.thumb.jpg.e2900ae72ba561b209ba49296be709e5.jpg to.

My birthplace, kitchen table. That is the entrance to hibs luck, it's been locked away for years. Hence the shit colour. We captured it and buried it. Do not touch.

Is it not the Hibs League Position Selector?

 

It's been set below us and the arrow buttons don't work anymore.

It’s blown up the west end and it’s heading through the city.

An old gas meter box perhaps?

Too big.

I'm thinking maybe a storage shed for an electric wheelchair/buggy.

It hasn't been used in years and is all rusted up.

With the buttons on the side it looks like it was powered up too.

Ah ok. There appears to be a wee white sticker or plate on the left hand side. Does it say anything?

I don't live around there and only pass it occasionally walking my dogs.

No idea what the sticker says but if it isn't faded away probably WTF is this 😆

:D

 

You could always leave a note on top saying exactly that and hope that one of the residents leaves a note in response giving the answer. ;)

 

Or alternatively, lift the lid and look inside. It appears to hinge on the left. I'm intrigued.

Looks like a cable tv/phone junction box.

It's not a utility box and it is in the private front garden of the ground floor flat.

For storing coal?

No it's not a coal bunker,too modern looking for that.

There is a handle beside the up/down arrowed buttons.

Good find sir. I hope wondering if it has an ancient rusty scooter inside does not sully your newfound rest.
