Local ELECO GR501s

The GR501 was (surprisingly) quite a popular lantern in some parts of Derbyshire - examples can mainly be seen in the North-East and South Derbyshire areas.

This wall-mounted GR501 is located in Matlock. A photocell is also wall-mounted; which suggests that the lantern would originally have been controlled via a time switch.

This damaged GR501 was spotted on the 19th June 2004 on the B5004 Moira Rd between Woodville and Moira in North-west Leicestershire. A Thorn Beta 2 replaced it.
