The South Bank is lined with these rather unusual Queens Silver Jubilee emblems, which I think are supposed to be in the shape of St Paul's Cathedral. I don't know how best to categorise them here on Geograph, so I have selected "sculpture" as the primary geographical category for this image. View taken looking south-southeast, with Jubilee Gardens in the background.

On 9 July 2005 Her Majesty The Queen unveiled The Memorial to the Women of World War Two. The bronze sculpture stands next to The Cenotaph in Whitehall, one of the most important ceremonial routes in the nation. The Memorial is a permanent tribute to the contribution made by more than seven million women during 1939 – 45 and it took seven years of campaigning for a hope to become reality. Significantly, almost every family in Britain knows a woman this memorial represents.
