With the odd Klaxon for Broadmoor Hospital in Berkshire.
...Which will be gone next year. The rest of the sirens are either Carter's (of Burnley) sirens or Castle Castings sirens, which is what Domodulator said. The only siren I know of that is still working is at Sutton Bridge in Lincolnshire which is a Carter's siren with the stator heaters attached to it. Since that setup was common during the Cold War I'm presuming that is when it was installed.

Really, this is really weird for me to see those unique mounting schemes, especially as a German that is used to the normal schemes :D
I hope you can find more of them, I am looking forward to see more of them. I am curious what kind of mountings they have...
The Flood Sirens are located in the following locations in Grimsby and Cleethorpes;

Blundell Park FC (Grimsby)
Freshney Place Shopping Centre (Grimsby)
Nelson House (Grimsby)
People's Park (Grimsby)
Grant Thorold Park (Grimsby)
Sidney Park (Cleethorpes)
Allotments adjacent to Kelham Road and Algernon Road (Cleethorpes)
Willows Academy (Grimsby)
Littlecoates Primary School (Grimsby)
South Parade Junior School (Grimsby)
Waterworks Cottage Lane (Grimsby)
Edward Heneage Primary School (Grimsby)
Reynolds Primary School (Cleethorpes)
Old Clee Junior School (Cleethorpes)
Cromwell Road (Cleethorpes)
Park Street (Cleethorpes)

Grimsby and Cleethorpes are the only towns in the UK to my knowledge have these Hörmanns most other places with flood sirens are usually Carters and Castle Castings with the odd Klaxon for Broadmoor Hospital in Berkshire.
Thank you very much! :)
