Nah Pix, it’s a shadow in the second pic, it’s the lower white blotches in the first pic that are confusing, here is one without the shadow.

Not sure what’s going on there then…how strange. 
Having donw thousands of cable runs with BT one looks for the most unobtrusive way of doing it,
Below my Bell wire run from bell to outside
I can’t see any reason for doing it the Spittie way
I wouldn’t do it the Spitty way for anyone else or commercially, but, personally, I don’t do radiator pipes in front of skirtings or trunking on an interior wall.

No trunking in my photo
It’s probably behind the quadrant ledge to window frame, luck plays a part in all these jobs.
No it is .around door frame and under window ledge, behind nothing
Then you made a mistake, your exterior doorbell is less than six inches from the quadrant.
Decided to replace trhe door bell push button, I didn’t notice how all the brass had gone and started to get pitted . So just ordered a white plastic replacement
Ii is surprising how one doesn’t notice the everyday objects and how bad they get.
The replacement arriving tomorrow. looking on Amazon there does not seem to be a wide choice of wired ones
Your right RS, yer just don’t notice previous projects deteriorating.
yes, its easy to miss those familiar things and not notice how bad they get. Never mind, it’ll not be easy to miss now, all white and fresh!
… and plastic … 
Not illuminated, though …

Sign of the times these days 
with the plastic etc. Just so long as RS doesn’t try and hammer it into place, he’ll be fine! 
no looked at brass type and see what happens after a few years in my photo
They’re cheap enough to replace every few years … or you could rub them down and re-polish them …
