Title
Interior of Lloyd's of London Royal Mail Building in Leadenhall Street
Description
The west corridor of the Royal Mail Building, part of Lloyd's of London on the corner of 12 Leadenhall Street, City of London. Edwin Cooper, who designed the main 1928 Lloyd's building, also designed Royal Mail House. Lloyd's bought it in 1936 as the business expanded. The columns framing the doorway are in the Tuscan style and classical urns sit above the cornice with fan-shaped window. What appears to be a phoenix and festooned garland in relief are on a panel above the door. The corridor is fitted out with marble and the ceiling has a coffered effect with a lantern hanging from it.
