Azca business Centre, Madrid. I posted these fences a few years ago when they were red! I think this colour gives them more elegance.

Some of you questioned my description of it as a granite monument and I think you were right to do do. I suggested marble but I don't know. It looks like wood here, but it certainly felt like stone underfoot when I was there. I like the tree too! I think it's a chestnut but can't be sure.

Another small park (Parque Ríos Rosas) adjoining the Canal Isabel II water company´s works. No, it's not closed because of Covid but because of high winds (Hurricane Alex). I saw the two fences and thought it might work.
