Odd shaped bollard...
Welcome back to Shelton Street WC2 with the junction of Mercer Street where I must pass this rather beautiful odd shaped bollard at least three to four times a week.The bollard has an octagonal body/base which flares outwards rises vertically then tapers inwards to form a flat octagonal shaped top. Has you can see from the photographs (above/below) it is painted/finished in gloss black.
The greatest shame here is that local businesses/people believe it's ok to place bags of rubbish next to the bollard. It maybe this is an official collection point even so it blights a rather pleasant part of London.
Black gloss finish...
Rome bollards thank you @LondonStone
With the #guestbollard feature returning I'd like to thank @LondonStone on the twitter for the first of many wonderful bollards which will be featured here from Rome.
