    I reckon this is the cabinet serving me - 550m if i measure distance on google maps.
    Could be - although the pitched top and tatty condition makes me think it's a Virgin Media cabinet.

    Have a shufti here - http://cleve.co.uk/wp/bt-and-vms-street-furniture-2020/ which might help you identify who owns the cabinet however most cabinets with FTTC capabilities will have louvres as they have active equipment inside which requires ventilation.

    An old scruffy unit like the one you've photographed is probably just a PCP - primary connection point which is just a cross connection facility and might just be cabled directly back to the exchange and may not be connected to an FTTC equipped cabinet.
    Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers
