67. Portland Place, Waterhouses, Staffordshire.  Not far from Survivor #66 is a derelict 6 m Stanton 7 column with a Revo C13284/AL lantern still fitted. The lantern has lost its lamp; however, an ES (Edison Screw) lampholder can still be seen inside the lantern. It therefore may have had a mercury lamp fitted when in use. There is also no bowl attached, though it may never have had one. Spalling has taken place at the column-bracket joint, but apart from that, the installation is in a good condition.

The column's door would appear to be blocked by a wall, but luckily this actually consists three removable panels, so someone could still gain access to the base if necessary. (Though the column is still buried quite deep in the ground.)
