Obelisk, St George's Circus
Obelisk in the centre of St George's Circus. It was erected in 1771, designed by Robert Mylne who was also responsible for Blackfriars Bridge. In 1897 it was removed to be replaced by a clock tower to commemorate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, and was subsequently re-erected in 1905 in front of what is now the Imperial War Museum (then the Bethlem Royal Hospital). It was returned to its original position in 1998. Grade II* listed - see LinkExternal link.
