Summary

Description
English: Eagle Pillar The eagle pillar in Orme Square has an uncertain history; its sculptor is unknown, as is the reason for its being where it is. Indeed it may not even be an eagle at all; it has been suggested that it is a phoenix, and originally was the symbol of a fire insurance company. A nearby house has birds looking like phoenixes in its frontage, so this could be correct.
