Description
The lamp post outside numbers 11-14 Hanover Place is a gas lamp post made of cast iron, likely from the early 20th century. It features a central, ornate column that stands approximately three meters tall, with decorative acanthus leaf motifs at both the top and bottom. The column has a slightly tapered, octagonal shape and rises from a large square pedestal with chamfered corners, which includes an applied registration plaque marked with the number 7522.
Atop the column, a three-legged frog supports a Grosvenor lantern. This lantern is circular in shape, with tapered and curved glazing panels held by metal glazing bars. It is finished with a decorative, perforated fret and an ogee finial at the top. Inside the lantern, there is a four-mantle burner, an enamel reflector, a Horstmann 14-day control clock, and a Comet igniter. The lamp post is centrally located in Hanover Place, directly in front of the specified buildings.
