Charing Cross Road, Trafalgar Square, St James’s Park, Buckingham Palace
The sun shone down on Central London on Remembrance Sunday. Leicester Square was packed. There was electric in the air in the unseasonal warmth. The West End was alive once more. I was bound for St James’s Park but the side streets leading away from Charing Cross constantly tempted – West Street, Lichfield Street, Cecil Court. The light danced in the fountains on Trafalgar Square. Kids climbed Edwin Landseer’s lions guarding the bunker beneath Nelson’s column. The marching band thumped out their racket on Horse Guards Parade and people strolled hand-in-hand through the leaves of St James’s Park. It was a glorious day.
Hi John I read in the Martin Pullen book “The Completely Useless Guide To London” that the cellars below wine merchants Berry Bros & Rudd at 3 St.James Street have an area equivalent to three tennis courts of which extend almost to Pall Mall and have space for a quarter of a million bottles of Port,Wine And Brandy
That’s incredible Daniel – thanks
