Siamese twin traffic lights in Walthamstow

Traffic from Edmonton reaching the Crooked Billet Roundabout is greeted by
two adjacent sets of lights on a single pole.

Both sets work in sync, both face the same way and none of the lights is a
filter arrow.
Traffic from Gants Hill gets the same thing on the other side of the
roundabout, although there seems to be a noticeable angle between this
pair...

What's that about? I've never noticed it anywhere else.
Well in the second picture they are point in two directions, perhaps
because of sight lines.
