Maybe it's the recent talk about old inspection covers, but I noticed this old electricity pole (at least I think that's what it was) and cast iron box on the corner of Gascgoigne Road and Chi Wo Street.

At the base of the pole is the lettering:

Bullers Limited London

Code Word Artro

Here's a page about Bullers, which shows they were manufacturers of electrical insulators and other electrical distribution equipment.

Wandering around Happy Valley today, I saw these unusual metal bollards. They're at the top of the steps leading down to Briar Ave.
