2504 - South west corner of Southwark bridge.
It’s an old cannon from a Napoleonic French warship.

That’s Vintner’s Hall across the Thames.

#2513 - Sorry, Sparkie, I've got to skip this one. It wouldn't be fair. I discovered the name without even having to search. I'll explain later.

When I was about to start my search I wanted to take another look at the photo, so I looked in the history on my pc. The name was mentioned in the description. Thought maybe it was a Christmas present.
Wish you all a Merry Christmas.
