WOBURN,BEDFORDSHIRE
This is a Village in bedfordshire and I been there in the spring 2000.The Street lighting is about 60 years old.The posts are 4-5M cast iron with the control boxes at the top of the posts.There are now some modern posts ( metal and one concrete).The posts are not very close together.The bulbs in the lanterns are mercury bulbs.They used to have timeswitches in them ,in 1976 they changed them to One part Photocells and I think with Nema sockets? Its look like they could be conduit ones and there are some RTE p42 photocells .Most of the lighting is Top entry lanterns,some side entry lanterns and 2 post top lanterns.
The 2 post top lanterns ( PHOSCO P111 )is in the centre of the village where there is a crossroads junction.1 of them is on the wall and the other one is on a CU BYWAY NX concrete post.
Most of the top entry lanterns look like they were made by REVO.
Update June 2005
When I visited WOBURN again in June 2005 ,all the cast iron posts and most of the brackets have been painted black . Along LEIGHTON STREET(A4012) there is a new lamp post. The post is a original REVO 5M MOSELEY cast iron post with a CU PHOSCO P516 ALBERT SQUARE lantern. This has got a glass refractor in it.On one of the REVO C14410T lanterns is a new miniature 1 part photocell in it.
