The following photographs were taken on Sunday, 7th November 2010.
The first, second and third outgoing columns supported remotely-geared Simplex Aries 35 Watt SOX lanterns at the time of removal.
A Thorn Beta 5 followed; this would have replaced a failed Aries at some point.
A second, albeit deep-bowled Beta 5 marked the opening of the footpath to Minster Road.
The Beta 5 was fitted with a late 1990s' Royce Thompson Oasis 2000 photocell.
Another shallow-bowled Beta 5 could be seen fitted to a Fabrikat mid-hinged column on the adjacent footpath.
GEC Z5698U post-top lanterns made up the other two lanterns installed on the footpath. Both were fitted to Abacus base-hinged columns.
