One thing that is true, is that anytime there were these kinds of calls to actions for the British and even American public, it was a unifying effort to boost morale at home. While no one can seem to say for sure what happened to 100% of these railings, there are several possibilities. Some say some railings were removed from many garden squares to make them accessible to the public. What they were used for and where they ended up is another question all together. There is no doubt that many railings were removed in London, as the remnants and metal nubs remain in place. Some would add that dockers in Canning Town 1978 reported working on these ‘lighters’ during the time and claimed that there was in fact a lot of ornamental iron railings dumped into the Thames estuary. This seems to be a prevailing theory, as many contend that the scrap metal was not able to be processed into weapons of war. Some stories suggest, however, that said the metal could not be used -for a variety of reasons- and was then dumped in the Thames or used for ballast for ships in the Port of London. There are pictures that show people tearing down these wrought iron fences. This was all part of a national scrap drive that asked people to send in scrap metal in order that it could be processed into necessary material for weapons, aircraft, and more. One of the stories goes that people went and tore down iron railings and fences around London in order to collect scrap metal needed for the war effort. This includes everything that was metal to even food items like milk and flour. There were several campaigns spearheaded by Allied governments that asked the people at home to collect, ration, and donate. People living back in Britain and in America, for example, had to make considerable sacrifices and rationing in order to keep the war machine as the top priority. So during the war, resources were scarce. So an on any given day, if you took a walk across the city of London, you would likely come across many iron railings that surrounded homes, parks, and more. During the early 20th century and even back to the Gothic period, England saw a lot of wrought iron work in its cities, parks, and surrounding government buildings and estates. It goes without saying that London and a lot of Britain heavily utilized the wrought iron and iron railings prior to World War II. And yet, the story remains quite contented and in 2012, an artist named Catalina Pollak created an installation titled Phantom Railings in Malet Street Gardens London to commemorate the alleged disappearance and legacy of these iron railings. There are different schools of thought as to whether it actually happened and as to what actually became of the iron railings that were uprooted. So there is apparently quite a bit of controversy regarding the story of the London railings. So we thought we’d take a look at a mysterious story about iron railings in London during the war, as well as other like-minded war efforts. And there are many tails of the war front that will raise eyebrows and take people back to a time where patriotism and love of country not only permeated the streets but also mobilized in tangible ways while soldiers were out in battle. Stories of the war front are often just as potent and intriguing. Whether they are gruesome tales of heroism and sacrifice, amazing discoveries, terrible wrongdoing, or of simple humanity shining through the difficult times.
