This 6m high arch on the north side of the Long Water in Hyde park is made of Roman traventine stone and was presented to the Royal Parks in 1980 following his 80th birthday exhibition which was held at the Serpentine Gallery. It was restored in 1996.
I am semi-retired after a career in medical sciences. I now work from home doing independent research and consultancy amongst other things. One advantage of this is that I do have time to indulge my interests including birdwatching, natural history, steam trains and history particularly ancient history.
