(relocated) Euston Arch - temporary stones

Erection date: /4/2015

Inscription

No inscription though there were some information panels.

We've marked the stones as relocated, assuming that they are being kept somewhere safe in the hope that the arch will eventually be re-erected.

Site: Euston Arch - temporary stones (1 memorial)

NW1, Euston Square

Only here from April-May 2015 these stones were effectively advertising the campaign to re-erect the Arch. Brought to our attention by Londonist - who are less than enamoured with the prospect.
