This is an iron casting in which several badly corroded threaded studs had snapped off. The embedded remains of the studs have been removed and the original threads are seen being re-cut and cleaned up prior to the casting (part of a 1930s street light), being sand-blasted. New studs are being manufactured, so that the restoration of this relic can be completed
