Building   

Danish-Norwegian Consulate

Categories: Other, Politics & Administration

Countries: Denmark, Norway

Numbers 20-21 Wellclose Square which housed this consulate no longer exist so we were delighted to find this 1930 picture which shows the reliefs one on the front of each building.

2021: This Spitalfields Life post has a close-up photo of one of these panels on a derelict building, marked "plaque excluded - to be carefully removed".
