As far as I can tell, the new lamp post has the same light fitting on top as the old one. However, the new lamp post is a lot taller than the one it replaces and the light is now a nuisance. There is a very bright light at night in our bedroom, which is at the front of our house opposite the lamp post. This happens because it is so much higher up than it used to be. Please could you arrange for some shielding or shading to be fixed to the lamp post that it does not disturb our sleep. Thank you very much
