'King's Cross', (c1872). The demolition of the King's Cross monument, or Memorial to George IV, in London in 1845. The lower storey was 'classically embellished', and once supported a statue of King George IV. The building was variously used as a place of exhibition, a police station and a beer-shop. The first temporary passenger station at King's Cross in London opened in 1850. From Old and New London, Vol. II: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places, by Walter Thornbury.
