Hi Labarum,
Unfortunately, I can remember these, from my childhood.  I also live in
Southampton.  I was brought up on an estate that was constructed after
the war.  All the houses were wired for Rediffusion, which gave a poor
choice of radio, via the dial in your picture. Times were hard then; no
I am not going melancholy; but everywhere had been devastated, as we
were a port town (not yet a City)and a major Luftwaffe target. 
Looking back, I can remember, my parents having to rent the Rediffusion
and also the television.
I don't know if the wiring is still in place on the houses, for the
service, which no longer exists.  I suspect it was better than nothing,
which for many was the choice of the day!
