If you looking for a new telephone then MakeItWorkshop is the place for you. We have a large and varied selection of phones dating from the early 20th Century through to the modern day, along with novelty telephones sourced from across the world, all of which are highly collectable.
All of the telephones we sell are fully checked, reconditioned and were necessarily converted for use on the modern system. All are compatible with modern BT sockets… so if you’re looking for a phone that is just that little bit different or a rarer vintage or antique phone then we probably have what you are looking for, and all at very reasonable prices!
Below is just a small selection in pictures of the range of phones that we have in the shop. To find out more either call in the shop for a chat or ring us and we will be glad to tell you what we have in stock, We are also able to source particular phones if you have that special request in mind. so please feel free to give us a call:

Hello, my old style phone is broken. Would you be able to help me fix it? Wasn’t sure whether you were open at present. Thanks.

Hello Helen. Strangely enough the person now running the Bike Project (MakeItCycles – the only project currently open) was once the person running the Telephone Project i.e. Me, so I suppose the answer is “yes” I would be able to help you fix it. To begin with, what would be really useful would be a photo of the phone plus an idea of what you think is wrong with it? The email address is: makeit.southport@gmail.com or, I’m happy for you to ring me/us on either 0793 027 7240 or 01704 535123
