Brunswick Square

Old Red Phone Box by Brunswick Square
Out wandering in London yesterday evening, and I resolved to take more pictures as I found things of interest. This is Brunswick Square, which is in the centre of town and was originally the site of the first hospital for treating children, particularly the poor and orphaned. At that time, it was on the edge of the city, with only fields separating it from the villages of Highgate and Hampstead. Now of course it's slap bang in the centre of town, but still represents one of those fabulous oasis' of calm that you regularly stumble across in the middle of London.

(Is it me, or does "Brunswick Square" sound like a 1930's Double Bass player?)
