    Read excerpt

    A statue of the 19th-century poet Lord Byron has been returned to Hyde Park, nearly 70 years after it was isolated on a traffic island when new roads were built through the area in the early 1960s. The Grade II-listed statue was erected as a national memorial in 1880 after receiving special permission from Queen Victoria.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Grade I listed dinosaurs that live in Crystal Palace Park have been removed from Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register after a multi-million pound regeneration project. The Victorian sculptures had become cracked and broken following their installation 172 years ago, and risked losing toes, teeth and tails unless they were saved. Bromley Council used £22m from the sale of nearby land to fund the project, which included improvements across the park. The National Lottery Heritage Fund c
