Description

The Richardson Candle street lamp, located on the south-east corner of Silver Street, was designed specifically for Cambridge City by Sir Albert Richardson in 1957 and manufactured by the REVO electrical company. This street lamp features a vertical, tubular lantern made of translucent glass, which houses fluorescent tubes. The lantern is topped and based with simple cast-iron elements and is mounted on a slim, fluted column made of bronze-coloured cast-iron.

The lamp is positioned outside the north elevation of the Grade II listed Pitt Building, which was designed by Edward Blore in 1831, and is directly in front of a pair of Grade II listed K6 telephone kiosks.
