Marble Arch is the large marble arch that stands in the centre of a roundabout at the junction of Oxford Street, Bayswater Road and Park Lane. It was constructed in the Regecy period and was created as an entrance to Buckingham Palace. The marble archway was designed by John Nash who gained inspiration from the Constantine Arch in Rome, (most visitors think it is bigger than it is!).
