Lamp post outside 15 Maunsel Street

The lamp post outside 15 Maunsel Street is a gas street light featuring an Eddystone column that dates back to 1910, topped with a Grosvenor-type lantern, likely from the early to mid-20th century.

The lamp post is made of cast iron, with a glazed lantern constructed from iron, spun copper, and enamelled steel. The decorative fret at the top of the lantern is probably made of cast lead. The column is tapering and fluted, and it includes one ladder rest. The base of the column displays the Westminster City Council crest on one side and the royal cypher G V R along with the date 1910 on the other side. An oval plaque near the base has an illegible serial number.

The lantern itself is circular, featuring tapered and curved glazing panels held by metal glazing bars. It is topped with a decorative, perforated fret and an ogee finial. Inside the lantern, there is a six-mantle inverted burner equipped with a Horstmann 14-day clockwork time controller and a steel reflector. The lantern is mounted on a three-legged frog that is attached to the collar of the column.
