The ‘Dorchester’ design is one of our most luxurious and era-defining designs with its strong cast iron base and Victorian lantern. 

Our traditional design features a Victorian motif on the base and is painted in stylish signal black which also covers the steel ladders. The lantern and post are joined together with a four-prong frog collar where the main attraction, the lantern, sits prominently. 

The lantern has been crafted with four clear glass panes, which offer excellent light distribution and really brighten up your outdoor space. The ‘Dorchester’ has a two-tier finish, which allows the ornate finish to give the lamp post a charming finish. 

Also, we recommend that the lamp post should be installed and certified by a qualified tradesperson who may have to make alterations. You can also find our installation guide here.

    Delivery

    Delivery  

    We do rely on national couriers to deliver to our customers, and this process is normally completed within 48 hours of dispatch. During this busy time, we make our best efforts to dispatch all orders, including those with Free Next Day Delivery, in time, but this is not always possible. Please note that the couriers can also experience slight delays due to the large influx of deliveries at this time of year.

    We may rely on local works to supply or create certain items, and this can at times, cause unexpected delays which are outside of our control. Any potential delay will be advertised with an approximate lead time on our website. Failing this, our customer service team will be in touch at the earliest opportunity to advise on any delays or alternatives that are immediately available.

    Everything you need to know
    How much does it cost to run a lamp post in your garden?

    Typically, if running an energy efficient 6watt LED bulb for 10 hours per day, the running cost would be approximately £2.65 per year.

    Do I require planning permission to install a Lamp Post in my garden?

    Generally, this lamp post would be classed as a 'minor domestic light fitting' and would not require planning permission. Generally speaking, lamp posts are designed to deflect light downwards in order to avoid neighbour disturbance. Where lamp posts are fitted with PIR motion detectors, it's important to make sure they are not continuously triggered by bushes or trees, which may cause a nuisance. Where in doubt, just contact your local planning office.

    Does this lamp post have to be attached to mains electricity?

    Yes, this lamp post is designed to be connected to a mains supply, which is normally run via armoured cable by an electrician. The installation process is very straightforward for any tradesperson.
