Fight to save Tottenham Court Road Tube mosaics

Mosaics on the Underground
London Transport commissioned the mosaic by Sir Eduardo Paolozzi in 1980

Mosaics at a London Underground (LU) station will be lost through redevelopment work, heritage campaigners have warned.
The Twentieth Century Society fear mosaics created by Sir Eduardo Paolozzi will be lost at Tottenham Court Road station.
The society said the archways of "very high quality" mosaics should be saved.
Redevelopment work is intended to improve access with new entrances and lifts.
