Croydon street lighting - Cultural Vandalism

Additional Information

The beautiful old cast iron lamppost are being ripped out (and allegedly sold off) by Croydon Council and replaced with dreadful looking steel ones.

The old cast iron lampposts were a architectural feature of the community, were functional and also very pleasant to look at.

This is also a waste of tax payer money as the old lampposts did not need replacing and would have lasted another 100 years. The new steel ones will undoubtedly rust within a couple of decades and need replacing again - costing Croydon residents again.

Residents of Croydon (and all UK residents) make your voice heard and help us to stop this cultural vandalism.
