CU Phosco P567 Lantern Installations

The CU Phosco P567 was the side-entry only version of the CU Phosco P567A, but it was available with a post-top adaptor. Unlike the P567-A, their canopy was made from GRP (fibreglass). These lanterns could run either SOX, SON, metal halide or (in a more-recent development) solar-powered LEDs.

Gillway, Tamworth

There are two, and they run 70W SON, but the one in the photograph does not work. The Zodion SS12 Photocell can be seen on top of the lantern.

Lichfield

St. Michael Road in Lichfield has some odd installations, this was the first time I've seen the LED versions of the P567. Pictured at night, it's obvious these either don't work, or the solar panels don't generate enough power to run them for very long.
