Recently, my eye was caught by an old electrical cabinet at the junction of Hulbert Road and Queens Annes Drive in Bedhampton. I waited for my photograph until the lighting was right to show it to good effect. The very worn exterior is strangely attractive and bears a cast shield with the City of Portsmouth crest and the inscription 'City of Portsmouth Electricity Undertaking' from which it should be possible to date it. The shield is shown in detail here. 200_2_P1020606

The cabinet stands next to a more modern version and its present day ownership is indicated by the yellow plate attached by Scottish and Southern Energy. 200_2_P1020609
