12FB. Henley Court / Marlow Court, Off Chase Side, Southgate, London. Thanks to Alex Monk for informing me of this Survivor. Mounted to the spigot of a Concrete Utilities (CU Phosco) 'Byway X' concrete column, situated by the garages for the two sets of flats, is a P107 post-top lantern, also made by Phosco. Within the roadway areas of this complex are several other 'Byway X' and 'Estate Minor' columns, which used to be topped with P107s too; however, this solitary column is now the only one to retain its (likely) original lantern; the rest having had modern LED post-top lanterns fitted instead. From speaking to the site's owner after taking these pictures, Henley Court was built in 1965, whilst Marlow Court followed four years later, which may explain why there are two different column types employed - the Byway Xs being on the former side and the Estate Minors being on the latter. The site's owner also confirmed that the surviving P107 remains in operational condition, but is switched from a main control photocell these days.

The P107 column is situated towards the rear of the site; its base being surrounded by bushes.

A prismatic glass refractor ring is visible within the lantern.

The lantern's Perspex bowl is damaged around the other side, with the surrounding plastic showing stress crazing.

A modern LED lamp appears to be fitted these days. Notice the 'Across Road' alignment marker on the lantern's base casting.
