Hi
Patrick Gannon next time you have your camera in the camp could you take a snap of the old light fixture on the wall at Plunkett Billets almost opposite the Churchill Tank before they are consigned to the scrap heap.

Paddy,
Your MISSION if you choose to except it is to find as many old fittings as possible and display them here.
This message will self destruct in 5 Seconds
Go Paddy

Hi ALL
Well done Ghosty dab hand with the camera.First photo noticed the bin none of them when we were young it was the big steel ones at the end of the houses rem them?
Second photo i see you were not alone check out the orb spooky or what.
Andy also rem sliding on them they look very small now or maybe its the fact that we got bigger.Looking at the windows they look out of place were better with the old sash windows although most of them needed something wedged in them to keep them open.
