An historic Grade II-listed Boston landmark has been reinstated at its new home in the newly developed Rosegarth Square public realm by Lindum.

Lindum managed the removal of the Five Lamps from its original position in Liquorpond Street and transported it to Sheffield, where it was restored by Ridgeway Ford and BAW Coatings.

The structure – commissioned in 1924 – was then returned to Rosegarth Square by Lindum Plant and installed and unveiled in front of dignitaries and guests.

Mark Leason, who is overseeing Lindum’s delivery of the Rosegarth Square and Crown House regeneration, said: “I am pleased and proud to have been part of the restoration of the Five Lamps. It’s fantastic to see this 100-year old landmark brought back to life and given a new home in the beautifully developed Rosegarth Gardens.”

Guests at the unveiling ceremony included Peter Tait, the grandson of Charles Day who originally commissioned the lamps to commemorate his mayoral year. Peter was joined by his daughter, granddaughter and great-granddaughter.

Councillor Dale Broughton, leader of Boston Borough Council, said: “Seeing the Five Lamps restored and installed in Rosegarth Square is a fantastic way of preserving an important part of our local heritage. It was especially meaningful to share the occasion with Peter Tait and his family, continuing the connection between the lamps and the community they have served for over a century.”

Lindum is currently on site delivering new public space in the town centre, comprising of landscaping and green space, the Wave sculpture and retail units and apartments in the Rosegarth View building.
