A public 'phone booth on Caldey Island still has its dialling tone after Tenby Town Council and Pembrokeshire County Council voiced their concerns to BT over plans to axe the payphone.
As part of a realignment plan, BT had drawn up a list of public payphone booths in the area that they planned to scrap.
However, Tenby Town Council recently backed the residents of the island in their fight to keep the booth, feeling that the service was an essential service in an emergency and also because mobile phone coverage on the island could be unreliable.
Town councillors received correspondence at their meeting on Tuesday evening from the county council's director of development informing members that the booth was to be retained.
"County council have done an excellent job in helping us with this; they asked us on the island to help them retain the payphone and that's what's happened," said Clr. Mike Evans.
