Ok, I am going to take the creepy out of this thread.

Go to flickr, search for "oxford lamppost". You will find the correct one within minutes. It belongs to a medieval alley in Oxford which is some kind of second tier tourist attraction. It is called Bulwarks Lane.

Ironically though, most images are of different lampposts in the the same alley. Only one guy went crazy with the blessed lamppost. And interestingly enough he also provided a photo of the second location (>>5). So now I wonder whether I accidentally reverse stalked a Cracky-stalker...
