This page provides an overview of quirky and interesting facts about Emsworth, including details about its streetlights, its namesake in Pennsylvania, and its twinning with a French town. It highlights unique aspects of the town to engage readers.
At about midnight during summer time (BST) and I believe at 01:00 (GMT) the rest of the year, the street lights that illuminate the town mostly go out and come on at about 20:00 everyday. If you’ve ever been around to watch when the lights do go out, it’s surprisingly how dark the town looks.
Whilst this site is about Emsworth, Hampshire, United Kingdom there is also an Emsworth in Pennsylvania in the United States.
The town of Emsworth is twinned with Saint-Aubin-sur-Mer in Normandy, France.
