Detailing

Across the road from outside the Cock & Lion. I thought the building snapped was very striking in the early evening light and I also thought that the stone detailing was very good, very fit for purpose. As good in its way as that on the west towers of Westminster Abbey and on County Hall - both of which I used to enjoy on the way to work at one time or another.

Can't see the stuff going up now wearing as well. But then, perhaps it won't have to, as the developers will be wanting to knock it down in fifty years, rather than the hundred or more which used to be the norm in busy towns.

Group search key: nda.
