Description
The Richardson Candles are five wall-mounted street lamps located on King's Parade in Cambridge. Designed by Sir Albert Richardson in 1957 specifically for the city, these lamps were manufactured by the REVO electrical company. Each 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 to the wall using a pair of plain metal brackets at each end. The lower bracket is embossed with the word REVO. One of these lamps is attached to no. 11 King's Parade.
