Thorn LED Lighting
Hanwood Bank, just south of Shrewsbury. Most of the street lighting lanterns along this road are Philips MA90s, but these are the odd few casual replacements. Thorn R2L2 and Philips Iridium.
Heading into Fleetwood, along side the tram route. This concrete column is now sleeved with a triple bracket of Thorn Civiteq lanterns, which were previously WRTL Vectras, and apparently before that I was told that the column was post-top with a Phosco P222 lantern.
Shaw Road, Coseley. Old 1970s style column and Thorn Civiteq lanterns which are LED. The original lantern on the old column was a GEC Z9554 (SOX/LPS), and the more modern post-top would have had an Industria/WRTL Arc 80 (SON/HPS).
One of the new Thorn R2L2 lanterns in central Stourbridge. This replaced a GEC Z9554, just like the rest. Rather than replace the column they just shortened the bracket instead.
New Urbis Amperas and Thorn R2L2s in Stourbridge. This is just on the town-centre ring-road. The Amperas are on the new twin-bracket column, and the R2L2s are on the old late 1960s columns.
Just coming off Scotts Green Island and heading into Dudley town centre. The roundabout is lit with Urbis Ampera Midis and the road is lit with Thorn R2L2s, both LED types. Previously the old lanterns were flat-glass Thorn Rivieras (SON/HPS) which got replaced in 2018.
12m post-top steel columns along Stourbridge Road (A4101) in Dudley. The lanterns are now Thorn R2L2s (LED) which were installed in 2018, but previously would of been Industria Vectras (SON/HPS).
Close up shot of 1-chevron Holophane V-Max on twin-bracket and a post-top Thorn R2L2. These columns are 12 metres tall, and the previous lanterns were mostly Industria Vectras with the odd Industria Arc 90 as well.
Thorn Civiteqs and military green coloured steel street lights along the A449 heading out of Kingswinford and Wall Heath. The previous lanterns would of been white coloured Urbis ZX2s with deep bowls.
12m post-top steel column with a Thorn Civiteq in Halesowen. The previous and original lantern would of been an Industria/WRTL Arc 90.
LED street lights along the A458 between Halesowen and Quinton. The lanterns in the foreground are Thorn R2L2s which were only installed this year, and the in background are Holophane V-Max which I think were installed back in around 2016. The previous lanterns used here were WRTL/Industria Arc 90s. You can also see the surviving Phosco P222 in the background as well, the only old lantern left that isn't LED.
12m post-top steel columns with Thorn R2L2s (LED), along the A4101 in Dudley. The previous and original lanterns were Industria Vectras (SON/HPS).
At Scotts Green Island in Dudley, where the A461 and A4101 meet. In the foreground are 'turn left' regulatory and sharp deviation of route signs, and in the background are street lights with LED lanterns such as Urbis Ampera Midis and Thorn R2L2s.
Closer up shot of a sleeved bracket of a 10m concrete column. The lantern is a fairly new Thorn Isaro Pro (LED). I think the previous and original lantern probably would of been some kind of LPS/SOX. This is on the A511 in South Derbyshire.
10m sleeved concrete columns with Thorn Isaro Pros (LED). The previous lanterns were Urbis ZX1s (SON/HPS), which were an unusual choice of lantern for columns at this height. I think the original lanterns before that probably would of been SOX/LPS types. This is on the A511 in South Derbyshire, just outside Swadlincote.

On the M69, coming up to the junction with the M1. Post-top columns with Thorn R2L2s, which are LED. The previous lanterns were Philips SGS204s, which were SON/HPS. All the older sodium lights that were on this section and at that junction roundabout have been replaced now.
On the M69, coming up to the junction with the M1. Columns with skinny twin brackets and Thorn R2L2s, which are LED. Sadly the Philips Iridiums 2s here have been replaced now, which were SON/HPS, and I don't think they were even 10 years old. The older sodium lights that were on this section and at that junction roundabout have now all been replaced as well.

Unusual bottom-entry twin bracket, one arm supporting a Thorn R2L2 and the other supporting a TRT Aspect. Originally I think this column used to be post-top and supported an Industria Vectra, then they installed this twin bracket with the R2L2 and reused the Vectra, and after that they eventually ended up replacing the Vectra for the Aspect.

Unusual bottom-entry twin bracket, one arm supporting a Thorn R2L2 and the other supporting an lndustria Vectra. Originally I think this column used to be post-top with just the Vectra, then they installed this twin bracket with the R2L2 and reused the Vectra again.

12m light green column with an outreach bracket and a newer Thorn R2L2 replacement lantern. The previous and original lantern would of been a Philips MA60. This is on the A41 outside Albrighton in Shropshire.

Couple of 12m light green columns with outreach brackets, one with a Philips MA60 and the other with a Thorn R2L2 replacement lantern. This is on the A41 outside Albrighton in Shropshire.
10m columns with newer Thorn R2L2s (LED). The previous and original lanterns were bowled and white coloured Urbis ZX2s (SON/HPS). Nowadays its not often you see larger LED lanterns like this being supported by outreach brackets.
