English: Unilever Buildings, New Bridge Street, London. 1930-1 by J. Lomax Simpson (in collaboration with Sir John Burnet, Tait and Lorne). Side gates and lamp stands by Walter Gilbert 1931-2. The large gates with associated ornamentation have gone, but the two pairs of side gates and the lamps on pillars are still extant. The lamp pillars have some figurative reliefs. The base of each pillar has three panels depicting: (i) two standing natives facing left poling a canoe laden with coconuts; (ii) a figure dressed in the lion-skin of Hercules carrying an uprooted coconut-palm in front of dragon-serpent(s) with two heads; (iii) two figures, one (left) carrying a club and holding up a cluster of coconuts, and the other (right) stoking an oven with a long-handled shovel. On the shafts of the pillars there are oval relief-panels with a repeated design featuring (i) two exotic birds; (ii) tropical foliage and flowers; (iii) a standing native (facing right) punting a canoe laden with coconuts; (iv) a native scaling the trunk of a palm-tree; (v) three natives filling a sack. Modelled by Walter Gilbert in association with Donald Gilbert and cast in the foundry of H. H. Martyn of Cheltenham. Photo by Phillip Medhurst. Metalwork 1931.
