Bollard Eastcheap


A bollard and old public lavatory vent at the centre of the junction of Eastcheap and Gracechurch Street, London.

This is actually a truncated former lamp that stood on the junction and along with its neighbouring bollards was designed to double as ventiliation for the urinals below.

Date: 19th Century.
