Concrete-Utilities/GEC Relic
A lovely old 1950s, 25ft-tall Concrete-Utilities 'Arc-2D' column complete with 'finned' bracket, and its original GECZ9450 sodium lantern. This fine example was one of two such columns that stood in Wolverhampton Road, Cannock, Staffordshire until quite recent times. Both have since been replaced by modern, but totally characterless steel lampposts.
Best viewed large.
