Book Bollards Cambridge University...

Book Bollards Cambridge University...


Welcome to Bollards of Britain and a huge thank you to all of you who have sent pictures to Bollards of London and the #guestbollards feature which is the inspiration behind this blog/site.

Who would have thought that you could find 'bollards' made of books that 'rotate' at the Cambridge University site right by the library.

The book bollards were designed by a local Cambridge sculptor Harry Gray there are 14 of them in total called/named "Ex Libris" and thanks to Martin Evans who supplied us with this great picture. I must say these bollards actually make me feel happy, they bring a smile to ones face.

The bollards were installed outside the world famous Cambridge University Library in September 2009. An article appeared in landscapeonline.com and it seems that not every body approves if this the piece in the Guardian newspaper online is anything to go by back in 2010.
