Harte Classic Railway Style 1.49m Lamp Post - Cast Iron & Steel

Standing 1.49 metres high, this cast iron and galvanised steel lamp post belongs to Harte's Station Master range, a collection of outdoor lights inspired by the lamps once used on Irish railway platforms in the late 1800s. It brings that same quiet, functional character to a driveway, garden path or entrance, built from materials chosen to last rather than trends chosen to impress.

Cast iron and galvanised steel build

The post is built from cast iron and galvanised steel, chosen for weather resistance over the long term. Harte says the cast iron and steel elements of its lighting carry a lifetime guarantee against cracking, bending or breaking under normal conditions, with exclusions for surface finish, electrical components, and damage caused during installation. The standard finish is gloss black, with other colours available on request.

How it works

The clear polycarbonate lens spreads light broadly, while the ornate cast iron cap sits over the lamp housing, directing light downward and reducing glare and upward light spill. It requires connection to mains wiring and a fixed base. We always recommend a qualified electrician installs this fitting.

Where it works best

At just under 1.5 metres, this lamp post suits path lighting along a garden walk, marking a driveway entrance, or lighting a side passage, anywhere a lower level, ambient light reads better than a tall, dominant fixture. Its heritage form sits equally well against period stonework or contemporary render.

Harte, Irish craft since 1983
