Pavilion Street SW1...

Unique bollard...




























We are back in Hans Town a ward within  the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea where back in 2009 I came across the beautiful 'Hans Town Bollard' literally opposite in Pavilion Street there sits planted firmly into the kerbside this rather unique looking bollard (post).

If we look at the picture/photograph (below) we see the bollard in its full glory/setting. The base appears to be square and set flush with the rather shallow kerb. A cylindrical base then rises but tapers with short tiered layers. A stubby column rises before it again tapers and the much narrower body/column rises until it flares outwards and then curves back towards what appears to be an ornate broken head.

Doesn't the red terracotta coloured stone/brickwork look beautiful.

Something missing from the top...
