One of the things I love about England is how so many houses — not fancy mansions but ordinary dwellings — have names.

Outside the National Gallery earlier this week…

The Russell Square tube station still retains its lovely old-fashioned signage.

With the tower of St. Pancras’ railway station in the background.

The New River is actually a manmade aqueduct dating from the early 17th century…

Outside a modern sandwich shop, leftover signage for a place where people once hung out.
