North West and West Wales.
Here are some photos from
Harlech, which is in the Meirionnydd district of Gwynedd.
GEC Z9454 - These, and the WRTL equivalent are very popular in the area.
WRTL MRL90 in front of Harlech - It has a white painted canopy.
Thorn Beta 79. These are quite rare in the area.
Davis GR70. There a few of these about.
Simplex Jupiter. There is only one remaining example in this town but there are a few more in surrounding towns such as Aberdovey. Unfortunately this example is in poor condition with both the door to the shoe being taped up, as well as one of the front clips failing.

1990s Thorn Beta 2, 55w SOX.
Some of the railway lighting at Harlech station includes aging flatglass Philips SGS203s, painted green! Notice the difference in bracket lengths.
WRTL MRL90s
1980s Thorn Beta 2
More Thorn Beta 2s. These are common in the area.
REVO Lucidor lighting a carpark however I think this may have been the standard fit for this area in a past. This is in private use.
As... In
Barmouth, there is an identical installation! This is lighting some sort of council storage area.
ZX3s, the front example is on an interesting 90 degree double bracket.
This nearby village uses Davis GR70s and lanterns I am not familiar with. If anyone can help with an identification, I would be most grateful (the lantern on the left).
MachynllethThorn Alpha 4s are fairly common in Mach, which is in the county of Powys. There is evidence in the form of postcards which show Eleco GR100s on the columns previously, but they are unlikely to be original to the columns.
Thorn Alpha 8s are also common in the area, both flat glass and bowled examples exist. This example is on an S&L column.
