Description
A gas street light comprising a Brompton column with a Grosvenor-type lantern, probably dating from the early to mid-C20.
MATERIALS: cast iron lamp post with a glazed lantern of iron, spun copper and enamelled steel. The decorative fret around the top of the lantern is probably cast lead.
DESCRIPTION: the lamp post consists of a tapering ‘Brompton’ column with agapanthus leaves at the base and top and topped with a Grosvenor lantern. The base of the column has an oval plaque number 6477. The lantern is circular, with tapered and curved glazing panels with metal glazing bars, topped with a decorative, perforated fret and an ogee finial to the tent. Inside there is a six-mantle inverted burner with a Horstmann 14 day clockwork time controller and a steel reflector. The lantern is mounted on a three-legged frog attached to the collar of the column.
