Old glass yes. There’s all sorts of wires spliced on the indicator stalk so I’ve ordered a new one rather than try to work out all the nonsense which has gone on there.

PROGRESS UPDATE:
Identified and rewired:
Sidelights
Headlights
Horn
Indicators
Current issues:
Reverse light always on, and wiring looks like rats have been at it. Reverse switch does work
Fog light doesn’t work but bulb works. Needs rewiring
Full beam doesn’t work

That looks like it has shorted out not rats…

Someone let the smoke out ...
Fog light doesn’t work but bulb works. Needs rewiring
The fog light unites themselves are notorious for corroding and not making good contact. I went through a phase of removing the light unit for every mot before fitting led ones. Check you have 12v in the tub corner working before assuming the whole things needs to be reworked
Full beam doesn’t work
Among other causes that could be the headlight switch itself, especially if the headlight circuit is not on a relay. They like to melt the contacts into the plastic so they no longer make contact. You can temporary repair by building the contact height up with solder but if that has happened a replacement switch is the only cure.
