Description

There are two cast iron lampstandards at the front of the Barry Docks Offices, two at the rear, and one on each side. The lampstandards have a design that sweeps out towards a panelled base. They feature Art Nouveau leaf-like details at the top of the circular stem, where the curved lamp bracket extends. One of the lampstandards at the rear is missing its bracket.
