Here at the forecourt of the newly refurbished St Pancras Station front/apartments we find a collective of three chocolate bollards guarding the stairwell to pavement/ground level. The bollards look ornate and have a circular base with a few bevelled edges that taper upwards to a more ornate top third with an almost orange juicer style top.
I must say the work to return the building back to its former glory is breathtaking however chocolate coloured bollards are a real mistake due the reddish coloured brick/stone work on the building and surrounding area.
Welcome once again to Bollards of London...
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...
I have to agree with you, they are quite ornate in design but certainly the wrong colour :(
