IMG 9772-001-Washing Line Finials
Sidney Estate (social housing), opened in 1938 in Somers Town. The decorative ceramics are by sculptor Gilbert Bayes. The lunettes above balconies are made of Doulton stoneware and depict scenes from fairy tales. The finials on the top of washing line poles (also Doulton stoneware) are sailing ships.

Unfortunately, many of these finials have been nicked and then flogged for large amounts. The current finials are reproductions. I think I read that there's an original in the British Library a few blocks away.
