Located on the site to an old sports ground, off Fort Parkway (now an industrial site) are a couple of GEC F69099s. These would have been original to the sports ground, and are now the only remnant left.
Both floods are wired to the same photocell in the centre of the column, each having their own pre-wired gear-box. Notice the GEC logos on the boxes.
