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...

The Leaning Bollard of Camden...
They may have the leaning tower of Pisa in Italy but here in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the land of austerity we can certainly go one better but on a much smaller scale.
In Goodge Place (just off Goodge Street) you'll find this wooden bollard leaning on a piece of private land in the London Borough of Camden creating a 'Leaning Bollard of Camden'. Who knows one day this may well become a tourist attraction in its own right.
I must ad that the top picture gives the impression that the bollard looks rather unstable hence the need for the second picture which clearly shows the bollard is leaning but perfectly safe.
If you happen to be in the Goodge Street area of London please do hunt down and admire 'the Leaning Bollard of Camden'.
