Questions re full fibre installation, and wired handsets

Hi,

I imagine these Qs have been answered before, but I couldn't see clear answers after a brief search.

First: Full Fibre is now apparently available to my address (estate built approx 10 years ago). But nobody has been in the estate digging up the road to lay fibre cables). How would our address now be avialable to have full fibre without maintenance work having been carried out? How would it be connected?

Second: I understand that your phone wil lplug directly into the back of the router. We use 2 wired phones. Is it possible in any way to have multiple phones in your house, without any of them being cordless? I see a lot of "just get corless phones" but is it possible to have multiples without buying a new cordless set? We're not long after buying a couple of retro handsets which I don't want to replace.

Thanks in advance.

Also as far as i am aware the only option for multiple phone would be a dect cordless kit

They don't always have to dig up the road, they don't don't outside in my area they just connected the cables to the cabinet in the area feed the cables underground through where the existing cables are and up the telephone pole ready to be connected
