More about this scene
Rumour and gossip are not always to be relied upon. This is true in two cases about this early Victorian crescent. For a long time some residents there claimed that their house was the original Dracula location. It was not. Stoker stayed at 6 Royal Crescent. As for the cannon (right), it was put there after the Great War and by the Second World War it had gone. Rumour said it had been buried for security. People dug for it without avail. What is more likely is that it was taken at the time when the country needed scrap iron for munitions.
