Local fire hydrant sign  by tinley23

Local fire hydrant sign

Top - pipe diameter in millimetres
Bottom - distance from sign in metres

I’m guessing the outer casing is original as it’s so battered, but the inner plate was replaced when we (semi)-converted to metric.
Interesting.

Nice bright yellow. Almost seem a shame that it is hidden.

@brianm I wish I could take the credit but I actually worked in the Water Office of the local fire brigade a number of years ago.

@wakelys Agreed - I guess that’s why they paint them bright yellow.
