Description

If you have ever walked along the Southbank between Shakespeare's Globe and Borough Market then you would have walked under Southwark Bridge. In the pedestrian underpass you may have noticed five large pieces of slate along the southern wall. The slates have been engraved by Richard Kindersley and shows a scene of a long lost London event; the Frost Fair.
