Who's Looking at You ?

What a wonderful corner we have here a lovely solid stone building on the corner of Millbank and Dean Stanley Street SW1 (leads to Smith Square). I do love a good street sign and yet again the Westminster City Council do us proud by placing clear informative street signs on the building which negates the need for street furniture and clutter.

Anyway did you notice the title for this post, "Who's Looking at You" for if you look up at this corner you'll notice the faces of those chubby boys that we call cherubs looking down upon us. I travel past this building almost daily and I never noticed it before, just goes to show what you can find if we pay a little more attention to the urban environment.

Must say also I do love that Taxi sign and it shows the business within this building knows a little about the surrounding area. Lovely bracket nice design of sign and it compliments the stone work which is both clean and decorative. We have though nice horizontal groves, rather nice sash windows and faces looking down at us, you may notice on the upper tier the introduction of brick and not just grey stone.

What a corner looking down at us here then...
