Description
Early C20 electricity junction box manufactured by Hardy and Padmore Ltd for Manchester City Council.
MATERIALS: cast iron.
PLAN: rectangular.
DESCRIPTION: the longer sides of the box are parallel with the south wall of the town hall extension, the front facing south. It has a low pyramidal cap with castellated edges above a moulded cornice, supported at each corner by an inward-scrolled corbel. Each of the two longer sides is a door with a moulded surround, two decorative strap hinges at the right hand side, and a Jacobean-style geometric strapwork relief. On the front this strapwork surrounds a detachable plaque featuring the crest of the City of Manchester, but there is no crest on the rear face. The two short sides are plain with moulded edges. They each have a circular relief reading ‘Hardy and Padmore Limited, Worcester’ and the east side has a raised banner at the base with the registered design number. The box is painted, black.
