Description
This listing describes three 19th-century gas street lamps. One lamp was made by Hardy and Padmore of Worcester, another is unmarked, and the third was produced by Baxendale and Co of Manchester.
The first lamp, located at the grid reference SO7637045659, is made of cast iron and features a Windsor lantern. It is supported by four scrolled brackets and set on a reeded column with a moulded base, tapering to an octagonal plinth that has a square foot. The ladder arms are reeded and have moulded finials, while the plinth is marked with the founder's mark.
The second lamp, found at SO7635445627, is also constructed of cast iron with a Windsor lantern. It has four scrolled brackets and is mounted on a tapering octagonal column that includes a heavily-moulded octagonal ring. The base is moulded and sits on an octagonal plinth with ogee stops. The ladder rest features a single long arm with a curved finial.
The third lamp, located at SO7637345577, is similarly made of cast iron and has a Windsor lantern. It is supported by four scrolled brackets and set on a tapering round column that rests on an octagonal plinth with a square base featuring broaches. The faces of this plinth are also cast with the founder's marks, and the ladder arms are round in profile with ball finials.
