Scenes from everyday life

William IV

William IV no longer has a statue in central London.  This one used to stand in King William Street in the City but was moved to Greenwich in the 1930s to make way for a road-widening scheme.

It's a grand statue: worth the train ride to see it.  William stands on a tall column.  My zoom lens has done a fine job capturing the lichen that is thriving in the almost rural setting of Greenwich Park.
