Gazing Across The Thames

The lifesize statue of Admiral Nelson outside the Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich gazes across the river towards the towers of Canary Wharf.

That's a wonderful photo. And I like the statue too.

Much nicer than the stature of the Queen Mother that recently popped up in Poundbury, gazing down regally upon the Waitrose car park.

Nelson doesn't have a plinth- he's on our level- which is rather nice.

I want to visit Poundbury. I've read a lot about it- and I have a soft spot for follies.
