When the new posts were installed, in some number, along Church Road, I was surprised that little heed seemed to have been paid to weather proofing with the posts having flat tops and no sign of any treatment, i.e. the tops are a different colour to the sides. That gave me the excuse to go and look at some other posts in the area to see what had been there.
This post in Croft Way the posts are Gold Standard with a fairly steep point to encourage the rain to flow away and a groove just to make it look better.
In Parkleys a different approach is taken with a simpler, and less decorative, V top, despite which the post seems to have weathered badly.
This post just off Riverside Drive is similar to its near-neighbour in Croft Way but has a slightly less steep point.
