Summary
[edit]DescriptionPaddington Station - geograph.org.uk - 630209.jpg |
English: Paddington Station Viewed from the Bishop's Road Bridge this is the north-western end of the station showing the gable ends of the three magnificent Brunel wrought iron roof arches with their arabesques. The roof was completed in 1854. The central span is 102 feet and 6 inches (31.2 metres) wide, while the side spans are 70 and 68 feet (21.3 and 20.7 metres) wide, while all of them are 500 feet (152.4 metres) long. The glass and steel span on the left dates from 1916 and was built to replicate the style of the original Brunel arches. This latter arch was recently threatened by demolition for a new office and retail development, and would have been the foremost Grade I listed structure to be destroyed, but has been saved for the time being by the work of various architectural historians. The Brunel arches suffered major bomb damage during the Second World War. |
