quote Marble Arch may have to give way for a bus station


Might be a blessing for the arch. Its in a lousy location right now


It's not so much that the arch is in a lousy location as that Cumberland
Gate is in a lousy location!

and since its not in its original location anyway a precedent has
already been set. Perhaps if it is moved the area might revert to its
old name of Tyburn , who knows!


That would be nice. I am looking for similar schemes to bring the name
Ossulstone back into common use ...
