Talk:Wellington Arch

Police station?
The article says that the arch accomodated a three-room police station. The Marble Arch article says something similar about that arch too. I suspect some confusion. Can anybody clarify? Gaius Cornelius (talk) 21:42, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * If you look at the EH listing, you will see Inside the Arch, three floors of exhibits tell its fascinating history, including its time as London's smallest police station. HTH Kbthompson (talk) 22:42, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Who was the model for the charioteer?
The article currently says it was the son of Lord Michelham, but there is no citation for that claim. I recently visited the exhibition inside the Arch which gives the history of its construction, and I'm fairly certain it said the model for the charioteer was unknown. If you search the web, there are a number of sites claiming Lord Michelham's son as the model, but I suspect many are just copying that information from here. The most authoritative reference I could find was an article in the Telegraph. However, I also found a website for the company that worked on the restoration which claimed that it was Adrian Jones' son (Adrian Jones being the sculptor). j4_james (talk) 19:19, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Dimensions of the structure
I read articles about various other Arches of Triumph but, this one does not have the details of height, width, or depth. It states a lot about the horse/horses statue on top but not about the Arch. Maybe someone can locate details of this, gap of knowledge. WhippetWild (talk) 23:42, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
