Slightly odd request but does anyone know of an operational red telephone box in the Leeds area?

I thought there might be a database somewhere but all I seem to get able to find is people turning them into coffee booths or housing defibrillators in them.

I can't remember the last time I saw one that wasn't a garden ornament.

The listed building index seems to work quite well in locating them

https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/ad...

Select Leeds as the district, then enter "telephone" under List Entry Text. When the list appears, click View on Map and wait... and wait a bit more...

Check the entries on Street View. Some seem to be fairly clean, others seem more or less abandoned.
