Temple Bar, a London gateway, dividing Fleet Street from the Strand, the City from the shire. Rebuilt after the Great Fire by Wren in 1669-73 at a cost of £1398, it was removed in 1878-79, and re-erected in Theobalds Park, Cheshunt, in 1888. Its site is marked by a memorial, surmounted by an amazing griffin, and erected in 1880 at a cost of £11,550.
