World's Smallest Police Station?

See the Trafalgar Square Hidden Gems Video which includes this police box.

In the southeast corner of Trafalgar Square, unnoticed by most visitors, is what many have called the world's smallest police station. There's only room for one inside and these days it is used as a storage room by the cleaners.

Trafalgar Square has always been a center for protests so the tiny police station was built into the original plans as a lookout post so the authorities could keep a check on the many marches and protests.

Is This the World's Smallest Police Station?
Common opinion says that accolade must go a phone booth in Carrabelle, Florida. I would suspect the internal dimensions of both 'police stations' is similar but the London one is certainly larger and taller.

Other unsual findings in the area includes the London Nose and a Harry Potter Film Location in London.
