The tiny green boxes are BT AFAIK or are Telco cabinets of some sort.
The building you are refering to is a Franchise head end. This is where the UBR's are all connected to and where you will find the equipment that provides all the TV / VOD / Connection to VM's Backhaul for broadband connections. These regional centres are then either fed from Bromley or Langley Super-headends where all the content for TV comes from.
This is as far as i understand it and without any too technical terms
