Detail of Marble Arch, Hyde Park, London, 2007. Marble Arch was designed by John Nash in 1827 as the ceremonial gateway to the refurbished Buckingham Palace, but in 1851 it was moved to its present position at the corner of Hyde Park. In 1908 a new road, Cumberland Gate, was cut across the corner of the Park leaving Marble Arch on a traffic island.
