A blog commemorating the unique fusion of form and function of UK coal hole covers - Victorian urban street art at its finest.

Islington, London N1
Many thanks to my undercover Spurs-supporting agent in the heart of Goonerland who spotted these fine covers including 3 by new foundries Joseph Samuel, Alfred Syer and John Ashton. Interesting to see a Haywards so far north of the river.
Every Phoenix foundry, Lewes
To Lewes, for a dip in the wonderful Pells Pool. And what a bonus - in nearby St Johns Terrace, this cover from one of the 9 foundries that used to operate in the town. Excuse my toes.
