Dieser Kormoran ließ mich ungewöhnlich nah heran mit der Kamera. Eine Rangerin versuchte ihn später erfolglos einzufangen. Vielleicht war er krank?

Strand (or the Strand) is a major thoroughfare in the City of Westminster, . It runs just over 3⁄4 mile from Trafalgar Square eastwards to Temple Bar, where the road becomes Fleet Street inside the City of London, and is part of the A4, a main road running west from inner London.

 

The road's name comes from the Old English strond, meaning the edge of a river, as it historically ran alongside the north bank of the River Thames. The street was popular with the British upper classes between the 12th and 17th centuries, with many historically important mansions being built between the Strand and the river. These included Essex House, Arundel House, Somerset House, Savoy Palace, Durham House and Cecil House. The aristocracy moved to the West End over the 17th century, following which the Strand became well known for coffee shops, restaurants and taverns. The street was a centre point for theatre and music hall during the 19th century, and several venues remain on the Strand. At the east end of the street are two historic churches; St Mary le Strand and St Clement Danes.

 

Several authors, poets and philosophers have lived on or near the Strand, including Charles Dickens, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Virginia Woolf. The street has been commemorated in the song, "Let's All Go Down the Strand", now recognised as a typical piece of Cockney music hall

The Temple Bar Memorial was designed by Horace Jones, Architect and Surveyor to the City of London, in 1880. The Temple Bar Memorial stands in front of the Royal Courts of Justice.

 

The elaborate pedestal in a Neo-Renaissance style serves as the base for a sculpture by Charles Bell Birch commonly called the Griffin (in fact a dragon), in reference to the heraldic crest of the Corporation of the City of London. The pedestal is decorated with statues by Joseph Boehm of Queen Victoria and her son The Prince of Wales, the last royals to have entered the City through Wren's gate, which event is depicted in one of the reliefs which also decorate the structure.

 

It was built after a Wren designed gateway was pulled down and moved, stone by stone to a new location. ( it now stand in Paternoster Square)
