A load of old Bollards!!!

Out for a stroll in Holetown tonight looking for an interesting photo opportunity. Thought a shot of the Louis Vuitton and Cartier stores set against the colourful but contrasting images of the chattel house rum bars would make an interesting contrast. However on chatting to a local it turns out that the bollard across from the stores is actually a 17th Century English cannon carelessly left behind.
It was discovered during excavation and rather than spend a lot of money recovering it the Bajans just turned it and left it in situ making it a street bollard. Ingenious or perhaps lazy, however always good to chat...
