Re: UK Siren Map

Apparently the Bewick Centre in Newcastle also had a Gents atop it from when the building was known as the Coatsworth Cinema. This information was brought to you through the same person that informed me of the previous Newcastle cinema siren location.

Re: 1917 Denver Quadruplex siren restoration thread

After months of silence, it’s great to see more progress on this restoration! There’s something really nice about the shape of siren rotors and choppers, and these ones are no exceptions! It’s also nice to see the information plate in such good condition :D

Re: Something in a picture

You can see further down in the image that there is another shape that perfectly lined up with the little guy, it’s probably an over-exposed pole of some description.

Re: UK Siren Map

Funnily enough, I have just found the location of another siren. The Shipcote Cinema (now known as Shipcote Hall) located in Gateshead, Newcastle, originally had what I believe was a World War II Gents siren installed upon it. The siren has since been removed. Someone I know remembered the siren sou...
