Two-phase control traffic signals, Foregate Street & City Road junction Chester, c1955

Pictures and text describing the Foregate and City Road junction in Chester - traffic lights that used "Electro-matic" traffic signal control. Page taken from the catalogue. The fine street lamp on the left is, I think after some prompting, a late 1930s style Revo 'Caerleon" lantern. There's also a great clock in the middle of the road - and the Grosvenor Park Hotel is advertising long gone "Birkenhead Ales".
