Entrance Screens
The new Elizabeth Line (formerly the Crossrail Project), has screens on every sub-surface platform. These screens provide passenger information as well as digital advertising.
The original entrance screen of the City of London Cemetery consisted of a typical construction of Kentish Ragstone wall and Caen stone copings with decorative elements carved. The stone was originally encased in Portland cement but this proved less than ideal as the acid rain of the 19th Century caused carbonates to decompose and sulphate-crystallisation accelerated the decay of limestones such as Caen.
