UK - London - BookBench, Bank of England and WW1 memorial

A Bench depicting a scene from The Wind in the Wiillows by Kenneth Graham with the Bank of England and the WW1 memorial at Cornhill, City of London. Scottish-born Graham (1859-1932) was a city worker at the Bank of England, retiring as its Secretary in 1908 due to ill health, before writing one of the most loved pieces of English fiction about Thames river bank wildlife characters. BookBench is part of a trail of 50 uniquely designed benches around London, connecting literary locations. The benches will be auctioned off to raise funds for the National Literacy Trust, helping to raise literacy levels in the UK.
