Bust

Sir Simon Milton relief

Erection date: /4/2013

The background depicts a few buildings and we can all ID City Hall. For the others we rely on the ever-informative Ornamental Passions. Immediately to his right is shown the old Westminster City Hall (on Marylebone Road) and further to his right is shown part of his college in Cambridge, Caius. The cakes at his right elbow reference his first job in the family chain of patisseries - Sharatons.
