Replica of the Eleanor Cross on the forecourt of Charing Cross Station on the Strand, London, UK. Designed by Edward Middleton Barry in 1865, it was based on the original Whitehall Cross built in 1291, which had been demolished in 1647 by order of Parliament. Distances in London are officially measured from the original site of the cross, now the statue of Charles I facing Whitehall, and not from this replica.
