The leaning lamp
THE historic lamp standard which stood at the bottom of Keere Street, Lewes, until demolished by a delivery van, has been replaced by a modern street light.
But the new lamp-post already seems to be sympathising with its predecessor by struggling to maintain a vertical position.
Local resident Mr Michael Barnard drew the attention of the Express to the lamp-posts pronounced lean.
