More about this scene
Temple Bar was designed by Sir Christopher Wren in 1672, to replace the earlier City of London gate destroyed by the Great Fire, and was the last of the old city gates to survive. But because of the enormous growth in London traffic during the Victorian era, it was dismantled in 1878, and acquired by Sir Henry Meux as the entrance to the family estate at Theobald's Park. In recent years the statues have been removed and the structure boarded up to prevent further dilapidation.
