From old records of the Parish Council Meetings
In November/December 1934 Mancetter Parish Council approached the Leicestershire and Warwickshire Electric Power Company with its proposals to purchase street lighting in Mancetter. Initially this was for eight street lights. Each light was to be fitted with a 100 watt gas filed electric lamp. The iniitial payment for this was £35 with an additional annual charge of £29 and 5 Shillings. This was such a major project and expense for the Parish Council that the project was not finalised until April 1938.
The switching on and extinguishing of the street lighting was a very manual operation. Just over a year later the Parish Council was again in consultation with the Power Company to negotiate the cost of extinguishing the street lights during the 'black out' periods in the Second World War. How would we cope with 100 watt bulbs in our street and someone flicking a switch to light and put out the street lights? How times have changed!
