GU1
Although located at East the Water, Bideford and 100% in Devon there
was at one time a TRURO outstation to keep the Cornish happy and make
them feel part of the G & K Family!” You almost trip
over this gully when you get of at its Bus Stop location!
GU2
Sandy Lane, Dawlish. Just one of a variety of kerb gullies with minor
variations to design and shape.
GU3 Again from
Dawlish, a different style.
GU4 Twelve square bars
and slightly concave. Truro features again. The depot at
Calenick Street in Truro was there in 1948 but the premises were
rebuilt I guess in the 60s and little info is available until further
research.
GU5 Kilkhampton on the A39 grabs another claim
to fame. This diagonal splip version was notified to me by Mr R.
M. Heard of The Square, Kilkhampton. He suggests its of the 1950
– 1969 era.
GU6 Perhaps the most photographed shoe on
the internet starring with an elderly and neatly worded gully.
GU7
A kerb and Gully Double Act from Dawlish – yet to see another
identical other than in this seaside town. Believe they are two
completely separate items.
GU8 Not a seven bar
Gate but a seven bar Grate with slightly concave bars. Exeter
GU9
Different lettering and round ends as opposed to squares as on the GU
8. Exeter.
GU10 Centre marked and hinged –
very common! Exeter.
GU11 Another hinged version, marked on
the perimeter but with more bars. Exeter.
GU12 Launceston is
the home to this very similar to the Kilkhampton diagonal split.
The name here is also shared between the two triangles. Unidentified
sweet wrapper.
GU13 Paignton boasts a different version
of lettering to the G3 of Dawlish. – the shoe is different but
the foot is still mine.
GU14 A quick trip
North to Combe Martin shows a different pattern and name
position. Permutations seem endless.
GU15 Oh Dear Oh
Dear - who's not very good at spelling ! Somehow this
gulley slipped through Quality Control and was banished to
Hatherleigh, High Street, where it was photographed in July 2009. A
Google search states "Ging a gang; a
troop; a crew; the retinue, servants, or people in a household."
- or maybe the collective noun for a streetful of Gulleys !
