Abstract: A light fitting (10) comprises a support surround (12), a front fascia (76) and a resilient fascia retainer (84), which may be spring clips, for holding the fascia in position and enabling removal of the fascia by a translational movement. The front fascia may be directly connected to the support surround or an intermediate member (86) may be provided to pivotally support the front fascia A lamp and lamp retainer are also provided such that the lamp may be moved relative to the retainer. The lamp retainer may form the front fascia or optionally comprises a tube. The front fascia may have a non-circular section such as a regular polygon. The support surround includes at least one spring arm for holding the light fitting in place on a layer of building.
