Public Lighting Recognition No17. The Thorn Gamma-6 with large diameter canopy.
The Thorn Gamma-6 post-top lantern has evolved through some dramatically different variants over the years, and examples of each mark are still to be found in the Uk. This is a third generation series lantern, similar to the small canopied version posted earlier on in the series, but this one is fitted with the larger diameter canopy. This lantern was photographed in Barnsley in 2006, and appears to have been very badly fitted to an old AEI/Thorn aluminium column.
