King Henry VIII Gate

King Henry VIII Gate is the main entrance to St Bartholomew's Hospital in Smithfield in the City of London. The hospital was founded in 1123 and is the oldest surviving hospital in England.

The statue of King Henry VIII above the gate is apparently the only outdoor statue of him in London.
