#TempleBar was designed & built in 1671 by Sir #ChristopherWren to replace the dilapidated 14th-century gate that marked the western limits of the City of London where #FleetStreet & #Strand meet. Above the arch, facing the City, were statues of #JamesI & #AnneOfDenmark, while on the west side, facing Westminster, were statues of #CharlesI & #CharlesII.
