London Road, Old Kent Road, Marsha/sea
Road.
OBELISK, ST. GEORGE'S CIRCUS.
The height of the Obelisk from the pavement level being 40 ft.
s., a 2,000 candle-power arc lamp would be required. This could
fixed by means of a cradle, with iron ladder for examination,
???airs, cleaning, &c. A scaffold for fixing same would be required.
Approximate cost of Fittings £75

ThE PROPOSED LAMP, LONDON ROAD AT ITS JUNCTION
WITH ST. GEORGE'S ROAD.
I would suggest that a refuge should be constructed between the
???mrails, and that the Tramway Company be called upon to alter
???eir sir lines as required. A Refuge is very much required here, and
Should he constructed before the road is paved with wood, an 18ft.
