COOKHAM , BERKSHIRE
This page is about some STREETLIGHTING in COOKHAM in BERKSHIRE.
COOKHAM used to have a lot of THORN BETA 4 , THORN BETA 9 , THORN GAMMA 8 lanterns with mostly GLS bulbs .
During the 90s most of these lanterns have been changed with new ones . A lot of the new lanterns are URBIS ZX1 with SON-T bulbs with NEMA socket photocells. There are some THORN GAMMA 6 , MIKE SMITH DESIGN lantern and D.W.WINDSOR lanterns.
