Have seen the lux plot done by HBC and confirmed it for myself with specialist software. The 100W lantern is a SONT100(which is used for side street lighting) the average lux value from the plot is 3.89, minimum value is 0.05 lux. The guy I spoke to at HBC indicated that was all they were asked to provide a street light.
The idea of the neighbourhood watch, was for the light to help with the CCTV cameras, but with that sort of lighting level and given the distance from the play area the cameras are sited the light won't be much good, you need IR to give the lighting level required plus better camera equipment.
