They took our single phase line down in 2015 when we moved onto 3 phase. Apart from replacements for the 2 that had broken in the last couple of years, they were all put up in 1955 when fr in law succeeded in getting leccy to the village.Lot of the poles about that were put in when the big push to get leccy to rural areas in the 50s & 60s. Seriously undersized to current spec.
When they took down the end ones with decent bracing wires, all the rest just fell down - they were completely rotten at soil level.
