Stratton Street runs round the back of Green Park Station. At the far left/northern corner, high up on the on No.15 there is a hopper that I have always admired that takes the form of a grotesque bird. See here – a screen grab from that link here:

It's a pretty impressive and unusual bit of metalwork.
But, until last week, I had never before noticed that much the metalwork that runs in front of the windows on No.17, which sits at right angles to No.15, is made up from little dragons' heads.


I need to use a better camera for things like this, sorry, but you get the gist!
It's a residential block. Whats all that about then?
