Welcome to bollards of London (incorporating bollards of Britain), a site dedicated to those rather odd looking pavement objects you find in the most interesting of places. Bollards have a history richer than most objects placed upon the pavement and we can easily find some from the earlier part of the 19th Century. Welcome once again to bollards of London and please do follow/contact me on the twitter @BollardsEngland or via gmail john.bollards@gmail.com #thankyou...

Padlocked bollard and the boris-bikes...
Here we have a padlocked bollard on Horseferry Road SW1 just north of the Dep't of Transport.
The bollard is stratigically placed to protect the bay/ranks of "boris-bikes". The boris-bikes are not in place yet (picture taken last week) but the idea that a bollard has to be padlocked does make you wonder what sort of city we live in. Honestly are we really concerned that somebody may want to steal a bollard.
The bollard is a bog standard Westminster Council with a yellow padlock. Must mention the traffic cone looking rather small but dandy when placed next to the jet black bollard.
