HPC (2010)
The same view as that in the previous post, as far as we could make out. Although I managed to include a bit of Apsley House in the right hand side of the picture which the postcard omitted. Some of the houses at the back of the postcard are still there, obscured behind the trees. Not sure about the statue on a plinth above and to the right of the gent. on the rails. Stripy pink granite plinth underneath Lord Byron does not look like the white limestone plinth in the postcard. Maybe they messed about with the statues when they messed about with the roads. Some of the white globular lamp standards in the postcard are still there, but not in this view.
