This metal box mounted on a post has fallen over. The base of the hollow post has corroded away (dog pee probably). There are cables running down from the box through the post and into the hole in the ground into which the post originally fitted. The box plus post is probably about 1 metre high if stood upright.
I wondered if it contains some switchgear or control system for street lighting.
It is located to the side of a shared cycle/footpath next to a canal in a suburban setting.
If I knew what it was I could report its dangerous state(live wiring?) to the council street lighting people or Openreach or somebody.
Does anyone know what the box is ?
