Between 1878 and 2004, when it was moved to Paternoster Square (Image]), this wonderful Baroque structure lay in semi-retirement in the grounds of Theobalds Park (Image]). Built 1670-72. Unlike most other buildings attributed to him, this was actually designed by Christopher Wren. Originally it marked the transition between the Cities of London (Fleet Street) and Westminster (Strand). Grade I listed. The date of the photo is uncertain.
