Historic monument commemorating King George IV. Located in the north-eastern corner of Trafalgar Square.
He's always there on his horsey overlooking Trafalgar Square and into the distance. They don't seem to mind the birds and the weather.
The statue of King George the fourth, at the Trafalgar square is an amazing sculpture reminding the ancient times of the British kingdom.
Its been said that originally it was designed to sit on top of the Marble Arch at the entrance to Buckingham Palace, but was then placed in its current location following the King's death. It definitely adds another spectacular view to the beautiful Trafalgar square.
