Looking closely at the Lloyds TSB building, at maximum resolution, you might be able to pick out lines of small upward facing steel spikes on all the ledges. Presumably to keep pigeons away. 2 are already sitting there, and a third is alighting. The spikes seem to have allowed the grass to grow well! I suspect the Ernest Jones building was also a bank not so many years ago.
