When artist Barry Robinson saved three traditional red phone boxes from the scrap heap he was praised by his neighbors.
That is, until he decided to mount them on a 20ft high girder in their rural village.
Mr Robinson created the unusual "work of art" in a field opposite his home in Hurley, Warwickshire, by bolting the three boxes onto an metal girder, which has been painted green and fashioned to look like a tree.
The 65-year-old describes the eye-catching structure, which was built without planning permission, as a celebration of Britishness.
However, his neighbors have branded it an "eyesore" and want it removed.
The artist Barry Robinson said 'I think it looks marvelous'
