'Gadus Morhua' Fish Street Art

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

The last time I visited Broadway Market was at the end of 2015. I really ought to get back there more often as it's a market that I really enjoy visiting in London. However, I decided to walk to Broadway Market during one of my lunch breaks on a weekday. I came across the giant fish on the side of a building on my way back to Hackney Road. The giant fish illustration is located at the junction of Pritchard's Row and Goldsmith Road near Broadway Market. Underneath the giant fish is the Latin name, "Gadus Mordua". I am not entirely sure if the fish is meant to represent Regent's Canal near here, the market, or something entirely different. I could not find out anything about it online, so if you do know what it is meant to represent, do tell me in the comments.
