OK, not big bulky 5ft fluorescent, and far from it. The A27 near Park Gate, just of J9 of the M27, has had a short stretch of dual carriageway relit with 36w...
Hi All, I was over Gravesend in Kent earlier and while I was there I decided to see if 3 cast-iron columns were still in a side road I'd remembered from...
My guess is that this is a former gas column by a relatively local foundry. The pattern isn't familiar to me. The Crich web site is often a good source of...
Just got around to seeing that Simon. Added to favorites Cheers Colin F. ... From: Simon Cornwell To: StreetlightingUK@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, March 23,...
Oh dear Mike I've been buying Sylvania branded lamps at work lately too to try and buy British which is nowdays a more or less impossible thing to do sadly. I...

Hi Tim, There's something you don't see everyday! That's defiantly an original LGW - all LGW's have been replaced on the Westminster contract some time ago, I...
Tim If it's the one I think you mean, with a curly brass feed pipe and with curleques, I think it's a Sugg Littleton. I suspect the globe is a repro and the ...
Sorry Tim - I was looking at the wrong one! Obviously the one I was looking at was the same one that Colin was looking at - but I still think it's Littleton...
Colin Both the Rochester and Littleton had a family likeness, and they contained anything up to six porcelain jets pointing downward, with each one fitted with...
Hi Guys, With regards to the Suggs Littleton, I'm fairly convinced it has never seen a gas mantle in its entire life! It is more likely to be one of the...
Hi All Talking about the Sugg Littleton/Rochester can anyone comfirm who made this light, I thought it was a Phosco P510 but they have a straighter sides...

Well done guys! I'm so pleased you managed to save the last one. It's a really unusual concept to take such a large post-top design and make a top-entry...
Hi John, Yes it just had to be saved, the p/t version is an iconic design in itself but the t/e version we think could be unique! The bowl locking nut is...
Hi all. When I went to Colas yesterday to pick up the Horsham flying saucer for Pete I grabbed myself a Philips 250w flat glass Traffic Vision which was made...
