WK College - incised panel by J Ledger

WK College - incised panel by J Ledger
(Levels tweaked to show the engraving).
It says 'Ledger' at the bottom:
"Goodhart-Rendel’s elevations – particularly those fronting Vincent Square - are where he most explicitly and successfully expressed his brand of architectural eclecticism and are, therefore of significance. Though the steel-frame is clearly expressed internally and implied externally by generous, regularly-spaced glazing, it is embellished by striking brickwork with a pierced parapet and red diaper patterns – both Gothic motifs. Of equal interest is the charming entrance in the manner of Sir John Soane, which is in green slate and surmounted by an incised panel by J. Ledger."
- from the fascinating history of the building here which has dozens of lovely architectural drawings and photos.
