A118 Winston Way (Ilford) - Coppermine - 6691.jpg
A118 Winston Way (Ilford)

The only sign in the whole world to show Griggs Approach as an A-road! This is actually on u/c Riches Road running a very short distance parallel to the A118 (to the right). But, note that according to this sign, you can go anti-clockwise to get to the A118 westbound!!!

Actually this is a shot looking down u/c Riches Road eastwards towards the A118 eastern roundabout. Note the dodgy roundabout sign (better view in previous photo).

Looking east along the A11. A fine example of the effect of road building on the environment.

Thorn Alpha 8 on a Fabrikat column - Coppermine - 22617.jpg
Thorn Alpha 8 on a Fabrikat column

Main Road in Romford, Havering is lit by some more of those 1970s columns seen with Urbis ZXs on London Road, but this time with Thorn Alpha 8 MK IIIs installed. I've a feeling these replaced MA90s, as I've pictured another column further along at Gallows Corner with one installed already, but I could be wrong. These were probably installed between 2000 and 2004, as I think that's when the lantern (in the form of the WRTL MRL8) was discontinued by WRTL. These are certainly very smart installations indeed!

Another view showing one of the superb survivors on the approach to Romford greyhound stadium. The A118 London Road can be seen in the background.

MA60s on Waterloo Road - Coppermine - 19711.jpg
MA60s on Waterloo Road

Waterloo Road, part of the Romford Ring Road, is lit by these ever fantastic MA60s installed on yet more classic installations! This time, they're giant hockeysticks that look a bit like octagonal steel columns, but I think these are of Fabrikat rather than Stainton manufacture! There are also plenty of recent casual replacements in the form of more MA60s, which is always good to see!

Looking south at the southern end of Cranbrook Road, where it meets the A118. Note the streetlights (new), also in place at the Gants Hill roundabout a mile or so to the north.
