Barcelona

This cover did I discover on the sidewalk near the Rambla. Probably fairly old since no wheels have worn it blank. I brushed it clean and photographed it while two young girls stood laughing. Then they asked and I could tell about the world wide family of quirky manholes bloggers.
Have not found any information about street fittings from PUJOL Xicoy online. Photo may 2015.

 Nothing found online: A circular fret pattern,  two oak leaf and the letters CGE which encirles each other. 1843 

Traditional manhole of Barcelone with Coat of Arms. The saint Jorge cross and the four bars of catalonia.

 Cast iron tiles as street adornments - show Craft Fellowship and recommandations of the local shop.
