The old lady of Threadneedle Street, is a very old fond monica given to the Bank of England.  It sites on large site at the end of this famous street.

However, a project was commissioned to update the paving and road outside of the front and we were proud to have been asked to supply the bricks for the project.  The client wanted Whitworth stone setts.  Whiteworth is a very hard sandstone, making it idea for somewhere that is going to get a lot of ‘traffic’ over the top of it.

As you can see from the 2 images below, almost identically taken from a before (thanks to Google Street View) and one from the work on site; you can see what parts are being upgraded.
