The iconic Red Phone Boxes in Ross hold a mysterious connection to the past. Step inside, pick up the phone, and listen to stories from Ross residents! Visitors can access these stories by 'dialling up' one of seven locals on the telephone. These 'Dial-a-Local' stories are amusing and heartfelt, showcasing the small, self-reliant community and its diverse characters. From a bull in the pub to a run-in with the Constabulary, these anecdotes paint a vivid picture of Ross's history. The installation is accessible anytime at the 'Dial a Local' phone box on Church Street.
