Urbis Albany Lantern Installations

The Albany is a heritage lantern designed by Urbis, following one of the designs based on a common type of gas lantern. They could come in SON or metal halide variants previously, but are now sold running 9W-100W LED. They can be post-top or pendant mounted.


King's Bromley

A pair of Albanys light a pedestrian crossing along the A515. Interestingly, they are not the Albany Zebra type, as they are used to light the street as well.

The second lantern:

You may have also noticed the traffic lights on the crossing. The nearby control/feeder showed a fault.


Lichfield

These can be seen quite abundantly in Staffordshire, usually running SON lamps (although LED and MH versions are also available). The following installation exists in Lichfield, in a small park by the Western Bypass. It's the slightly rare sight of an Albany being mounted post-top. It runs 70W SON-T.
