Newly constructed in 2020 to replace the former pole-mounted transformer at this spot. The reason for the replacement is that a new house is being built here on what was formerly a field separating the houses on either side. Note that a short length of 3-phase bundle has been installed on either side of the new pole, but beyond the blue car it reverts to the old fashioned arrangement of four separate wires strung on ceramic insulators.
