A lamp and a hardscape structure illuminated by the lamp are disclosed. The lamp is formed from a plate to which a light fixture is attached. The plate may have a flange, a decorative face plate and side panels attached to direct light from the fixture along the hardscape on which the lamp is mounted. Mounting is effected by positioning the plate between discrete hardscape elements that are stacked one atop another. A portion of the plate projects out from the structure allowing the fixture to cast light on the structure surface.

What is claimed is: 1. A lamp adapted for mounting on a structure formed of a plurality of discrete elements stacked one atop another, said lamp comprising: a plate positionable between at least two of said elements, contact between said plate and said elements retaining said lamp in position on said structure; a flange attached to said plate, said flange being oriented at a right angle to the plane of said plate, said flange having a first surface facing away from said plate and a second surface positioned opposite said first surface; and a light fixture attached to said second surface of said flange. 2. A lamp according to claim 1, further comprising first and second side panels located at opposite ends of said flange, said side panels being oriented angularly with respect to said flange. 3. A lamp according to claim 1, further comprising a face plate overlying said first surface of said flange. 4. A lamp according to claim 3, further comprising first and second side panels located at opposite ends of said face plate, said side panels being oriented angularly with respect to said face plate. 5. A lamp according to claim 1, wherein said light fixture further comprises an electrically conducting power line extending therefrom, said power line being connectable to a source of electrical power for powering said lamp. 6. A lamp according to claim 1, further comprising a light bulb connected within said light fixture. 7. A lamp according to claim 1, further comprising an elongated side panel positioned on one side of said lamp, said elongated side panel directing light from said lamp to an opposite side thereof. 8. A lamp according to claim 7, further comprising a face plate positioned adjacent to said elongated side panel, said face plate having an asymmetrical shape for further directing light from said lamp to said opposite side. 9. A lamp mountable on a wall formed of elements stacked one atop another, said lamp comprising: a plate positionable between two of said elements; a flange mounted on said plate, said flange being oriented transversely to said plate and having a first surface facing outwardly away from said plate and a second surface positioned opposite thereto; a light fixture attached to said second surface of said flange; and a face plate attached to said first surface of said flange. 10. A lamp according to claim 9, further comprising first and second side panels located at opposite ends of said face plate, said side panels being oriented angularly with respect to said face plate. 11. A lamp according to claim 9, further comprising a light bulb connected with said light fixture. 12. A lamp according to claim 9, further comprising an electrically conducting power line extending from said light fixture, said power line being connectable to a source of electrical power for powering said lamp. 13. An illuminated hardscape comprising: a wall formed of a plurality of discrete elements positioned one atop another; a lamp mounted on said wall, said lamp comprising a plate positioned between at least two of said elements, contact between said plate and said elements retaining said lamp in position on said wall; a flange attached to said plate, said flange being oriented transversely to the plane of said plate, said flange having a first surface facing away from said plate and a second surface positioned opposite said first surface; and a light fixture attached to said second surface of said flange. 14. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, wherein a portion of said plate projects outwardly from said wall, said flange being attached to said portion of said plate. 15. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, wherein said flange is oriented at a right angle with respect to said plate. 16. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, further comprising first and second side panels located at opposite ends of said flange, said side panels being oriented angularly with respect to said flange. 17. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, further comprising a face plate overlying said first surface of said flange. 18. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 17, further comprising first and second side panels located at opposite ends of said face plate, said side panels being oriented angularly with respect to said face plate. 19. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, wherein said light fixture further comprises an electrically conducting power line extending therefrom, said power line being connectable to a source of electrical power for powering said lamp. 20. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 19, further comprising a transformer connected to said power line. 21. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, further comprising a light bulb connected within said light fixture. 22. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, further comprising a plurality of said lamps mounted on said wall in spaced relation to one another. 23. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 13, wherein said plate is oriented horizontally. 24. An illuminated hardscape comprising: at least one tread of a step formed of a plurality of discrete elements positioned one atop another; a lamp mounted on a riser above said tread, said lamp comprising a plate positioned between at least two of said elements, contact between said plate and said elements retaining said lamp in position on said riser; a flange attached to said plate, said flange being oriented transversely to the plane of said plate, said flange having a first surface facing away from said plate and a second surface positioned opposite said first surface; and a light fixture attached to said second surface of said flange. 25. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 24, wherein said lamp is positioned on one side of said step. 26. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 25, wherein said lamp comprises an elongated side panel positioned on one side of said lamp, said elongated side panel directing light from said lamp to an opposite side thereof. 27. An illuminated hardscape according to claim 26, wherein said lamp comprises a face plate positioned adjacent to said elongated side panel, said face plate having an asymmetrical shape for further directing light from said lamp to said opposite side. 28. A method of constructing an illuminated hardscape, said method comprising: assembling said hardscape by positioning a plurality of discrete elements one atop another; providing a lamp, said lamp comprising: a plate positionable between two of said elements; a flange mounted on said plate, said flange being oriented transversely to said plate and having a first surface facing outwardly away from said plate and a second surface positioned opposite thereto; a light fixture attached to said second surface of said flange; and a face plate attached to said first surface of said flange; and positioning said plate between at least two of said elements by placing said plate atop a first one of said elements and then placing a second one of said elements atop said plate, contact between said plate and said elements retaining said lamp in position on said hardscape.
