Marble arch

Marble Arch is a White Carrara-marble monument at the junction of oxford street, park lane, and Edgware road, in London, England. The arch ir on a large traffic island, which also includes a very small park. The traffic island is directly across from the Marble Arch tube station.

There are three small rooms inside the arch that were used as a police station until 1950, first for the royal constables of the park and later the Metropolitan Police.

The nearest London underground station is Marble Arch on the Central Line.

Speaker’s Corner

A speakers corner is an area where open air public speaking, debate and discussion are allowed. The original and most noted is in the north-east corner of Hyde Park in London, England. Speakers there may speak on any subject, as long as the police consider their speeches lawful, although this right is not restricted to speakers corner only-the same right to free speech applies everywhere else in the UK. Contrary to popular belief, there is no immunity from the law, nor are any subjects proscribed, but in practice the police tend to be tolerant and therefore only intervene when they receive a complaint or if they hear profanity.
