A Lion in Victoria Park, East London ?

A lion in Victoria Park?

No its not a big cat, its a Pavi Lion.

Fences have been erected during the restoration work on the park in East London. I am not sure if the placement of the sign is deliberate. The pavilion is the building with the glass dome.

The lake has been drained as part of the restoration work.
