Remember these?




The second item is a Chalwyn road lantern from UK 1960's to 1970's
Why it was hanging from a tree in my backyard when I moved here ten years ago...I have no idea.I also found a diary(not much in it) from the lady that owned this house and lived to be 106 years old.
I was told they were common throughout England in construction areas and quite commonly stolen to be used for other purposes.I should restore to orginal.

  1. Wow - we had a Sealtest box just like that on our porch. I'm trying to turn old stuff like that into planters, so that's the first thing I thought when I saw it - but maybe you're using it for a table?
    Really nice photos on your site!!
