Earliest date: ca: May/June 1892...ornamental lamps in Martin Place on footpath outside GPO in place... Latest date: 1898...no sign of the 1898-99 GPO additions... In this pic we see the six ornamental lamps that were erected in Martin Place on the footpath outside the GPO in ca May/June 1892...if you zoom in at the purl, you can see that these original lamps had 5 lights...a top light and 4 lower lights. At some point (I haven't discovered when, but I think it was in the 1890s) the ornamental ironwork around the top light was altered...after this alteration the lamps appear to have been mainly used as 1 light lamps, with the large top light only in place...and the 4 lower lights removed ...though just to complicate things, one pic I've seen shows the ornamental ironwork around the top light altered, and all 5 lights in place...but they're all small bulbs... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/236176437 - the Daily Telegraph, 1st June, 1892...item on the erection of the lamps... Similar view, but somewhat later...this pic shows the six footpath lamps as they later appeared... www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2362681483/
