Local ELECO GR 501-1s

The GR 501-1 is very rare here - in fact, I thought that the example pictured below was a GR 501 until I noticed that the lampholder was positioned at the front of the lantern.

This GR 501-1 is in Matlock - the area I've dubbed 'ELECO City', on account of the number of lanterns made by that company that used to be seen there. A Zodion two-part detector is fitted but it is on the other side of the lantern and cannot be seen in these photographs. A 35 Watt SOX lamp is fitted although the lantern can accommodate up to 55 Watt SOX.
