The latest in the series in which we ask you to identify where in London this picture was taken and what it’s of. If you think you can identify this picture, leave a comment below. We’ll reveal the answer early next week. Good luck!

Yes, as was guessed, this is indeed Little Ben, a miniature clock tower which usually stands on a traffic island at the junction of Vauxhall Bridge Road and Victoria Street, close to Victoria Underground Station (it has been temporarily removed while upgrade works are being carried out at Victoria Station).

The 30 foot/nine metre high cast iron tower, designed as a smaller version of the Houses of Parliament Clock Tower, affectionately referred to as Big Ben, which lies at the other end of Victoria Street, was the work of Croydon-based clockmakers Gillett & Johnson in 1892.

The clocktower was removed in 1964 when roadworks were being carried out but, following a restoration, was put back close to its original location in 1981 by  Westminster City Council with the financial aid of French oil company Elf Aquitaine UK who intended its return as “a gesture of Franco-British friendship” as well as, so it’s been reported, to mark the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana.

There is a rhyming couplet inscribed on tower, ‘Little Ben’s Apology for Summer Time’: My hands you may retard or may advance, my heart beats true for England as for France. This  refers to the fact the clock is permanently set one hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.

Interestingly, there is apparently a fullsize replica of Little Ben erected in Victoria, capital of the Seychelles – it was built to mark Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee in 1897.
