Makes you wonder why they are there in the first place.

Well if the LGA guide had been followed there would have been no extinguisher, which in turn would not have needed a GRP plastic box to protect it from vandalism and thus no fire......

There is no point in them being there!

Cracking guide that LGA guide, eh Tony, despite what a tiny handful of dozy F&RS say about it.
