Fire Hydrant Sign, Blackawton, Devon
An interesting fire hydrant sign in Blackawton that must represent a transition phase between its cast iron predecessors with numbers that 'slot into' the sign template and the modern version with 'stick on' vinyl numbers. The base sign is made of sheet metal with the large H painted on the plate and the whole assembly mounted in a concrete post. Also of interest is the distance to the pipe connection in the road which is 1.2 meters. This sign's location can be seen in my post at www.flickr.com/photos/61719529@N07/8537615147/in/photostream along with the location of the yellow-painted cover in the roadway.
