The water reflection
The stillness of the non-working fountain generated this reflection.
It is on Holborn Viaduct, just round the corner from these
Please note that I was not in danger taking this photo and no squatting was required - ie an unusual photo for me.
You can just see the Viaduct Tavern (hiding behind the bus). The pub was built in 1869 and is named after the Holborn Viaduct. - You don't say!!!!
The Viaduct Tavern and the Old Bailey opposite, (not blipped that yet) were built on the site of Newgate Prison, notorious for its appalling conditions and public hangings, which continued until 1868. The cellars of the Viaduct are former cells of the prison and tours of them can be arranged by appointment.
The train journey in was marred by the man next to me talking on his phone and picking his nose and I was delayed coming home due to the signals between Clapham Junction and Vauxhall being struck by lightning!
