Description

This gold springbok above the entrance to South Africa House on Trafalgar Square was created by Charles Wheeler in 1934. For me, as a South African, this is one of the 'must see' sights in London. So easy to find too, almost everybody visits Nelson's column or the National Gallery! Keep well, Clive

In one day in London, Rosy and myself took almost 2,000 pictures! And not all of 'The Sights!' There is SO much to see other than those normal tourist haunts.. Look up, look down even.. You will see things that will amaze you.. Do YOU know where the oldest Church is in London? No? Its right beside The tower Of London, but when Rosy and I visited this amazing building, there were two, yes TWO people there! Great shot Clive, I know this well! Rob
