Very odd - Sometimes new developments make councils or contractors install lanterns alongside or opposite the new street that are the same as the majority of the rest of the road. So it seems to me that the estate was the reason for the SOX lantern to be installed. As for the ZX1, could another lantern and bracket been used on that telegraph pole before? So the lighting was upgraded a few years ago as the supply was still there? Are they also both lit at night?

Yes, both are lit at night. It is quite possible that there used to be a pole bracket lantern there before, and that during the 1970s replacement scheme that it was just left and somehow remained in service, being replaced just like a normal replacement. There is another location in the borough where there is a pole mounted lantern on a road lit with columns, and the pole mounted lantern serves no purpose, yet it is still serviced.
