York Waterwate

Victoria Embankment Gardens, London WC2.

 

The Watergate was built in 1626 by Inigo Jones, for George Villiers, the first Duke of Buckingham.

 

With the construction of Joseph Bazalgette's Victoria Embankment, the Watergate, formerly on the bank of the Thames, found itself marooned 150m from the river's edge.
