Re: The O/T thread! Thanks, as you can tell its a replica Groveland which we have cast in aluminium from our own pattern that we made from measurements from an original Groveland column (Groveland became a synonym for this style as there's so many replicas from the period it's hard to find an original now. Ours are cast in four pieces and I weld them together. Sadly the picture doesn't show our Windsor style lantern (also crafted by my own fair hand) and in some ways that's a shame as we feel they compliment the Groveland column better than any other, on the other hand Lewisham insisted that we use a reflector with horizontal mounted lamp as opposed to the more traditional vertical lamp within a refractor which, whilst perhaps are not the latest in high tech lighting they do look 'right' for the 1908 design of the lantern.
I am actually this boring.
