    Extractions: In November 2007 London's St.Pancras International station was reopened following a multimillion pound redevelopment as the new terminus for the Eurostar link with Paris and Brussels. Standing on the platform is a larger-than-lifesize statue of poet John Betjeman by Martin Jennings. Betjeman had been the driving force behind efforts to save the site when it was threatened by development plans during the 1960's and the sculpture stands as a tribute from London and Continental Railways to the man who made their redevelopment of the station possible. Work on the sculpture began in May 2007. A month earlier Martin had won a competition for the commission organised by arts consultancy Futurecity Limited . The 2.1m high sculpture was completed in clay within two months and casting began immediately in Gloucestershire-based foundry Pangolin Editions While this was proceeding Martin and members of his workshop set about inscribing in Cumbrian slate the various quotations he had chosen from Betjeman's poetry that were subsequently set in the platform around the sculpture.

Length : Text-only version Prev Index Next Your comments on this poem to attach to the end [ microfaq Continuing the theme... Slough John Betjeman My thanks to Frank O'Shea (the instigator of our current theme "The Poet Cranky") for re-introducing this poem to me. (I'd read it in the past, but for some reason it failed to stick in my mind). Betjeman has been described as the poet of nostalgia, but what I like about today's poem is not so much the fond remembrance of things past which runs like an undercurrent through almost all his work, as it is the unabashed loathing with which the poet describes the industrial wasteland that Slough has become. I do enjoy an old-fashioned, no-holds-barred rant... thomas.

Betjeman succeeded Cecil Day Lewis as Poet Laureate in 1972, and he was to hold the position until his death. He has been described as a 'national monument', the most popular poet Laureate of the twentieth-century. Certainly his poetry, including a verse autobiography Summoned by Bells (1960), reached a wide audience, and he raised the public profile of architectural history, particularly that of English Parish Churches, through his published writings and his popular television broadcasts on this topic. Betjeman accompanied his family on holidays in Trebetherick, North Cornwall, as a boy and he retained a life-long affection and association with the region which is reflected in his publications, including
