Connected London: 125 years of the telephone

In the 125 years since the first London phone call was made, we've moved from Bakelite to WAP technology. This exhibition, in conjunction with BT's Connected Earth programme, looks at the development of technology and ways of communicating.

Objects such as the Bell patent telephone of 1878 and the two-millionth phone, produced in gold in 1954, rub shoulders with designer mobiles.

There are also phone facts and figures, old sound recordings and exhibits based round earlier technologies --notably balloon and pigeon post.
