Description


BEVERLEY THE WOODLANDS TA 0239 (north side)

14/12 Lamp standard in the grass verge opposite No 20 17-.8.77

- II

Late Georgian (post 1826) cast iron lamp standard presumed to have been made by William Crosskill of Beverley. The square, steppes base has a stilted arch to each face of the lower step and on each face of the upper step is a wreath. Then an octagonal step to the column in the form of a fasces-minus-axehead (symbolising a disused weapon of war). From a narrow collar rises a section modelled on Pompeiian bronze standard lamps, surmounted by a copper gas-type lantern of modern date.
