The current main road lighting through Llandovery. The Urbis ZX3 flat glass lantern and bracket are a recent fitting, as is the elegant green and gold paintwork, but I believe the column to be older.

Llandovery used to be lit by 90W SOX lanterns, including some Thorn Alpha 1s. All the Alpha 1s have sadly now disappeared.

SOX lighting and original brackets have been retained on the main road at the eastern end of Llandovery. The majority of lanterns are of the GEC Z9454 variety (background), but there are now some modern MA90 replacements (foreground).

These WRTL Mercia SON-T lanterns are a new fitting to the main car park in Llandovery, below the castle. Most columns feature two lanterns as shown here.

Personally, I think I prefer the similar, but slightly more elegant Urbis lanterns in St Clears.

This fibreglass column has been fitted with a hockey stick style metal extension and a GEC Z9484 lantern. It looks like the rust from the metal extension is beginning to damage the top of the column, and the door at the base is held on with tape. Originally I believed the metal bracket to be a later addition, but Jon Salmon thinks it is probably original.

This photo was taken in a residential estate called 'Gelli Deg' at the eastern end of Llandovery.
