With Londoners making their daily journeys and hurrying about, it's likely a majority rarely ever look up.
That's what makes these three menacing devils perched on 54-55 Cornhill in the City of London something of a hidden secret with a bit of folklore attached.
According to local legend, these three Victorian devils are the spiteful result of a row between architect Ernest Augustus Runtz and the clergyman of neighbouring church, St Peter Upon Cornhill.
His original design for the 1893 building is said to have encroached onto the land of the church next door, much to the dismay of the clergyman.
Causing a long argument with the vicar, Runtz was reportedly forced to redesign it which ultimately delayed construction.
In petty fashion, the three devils, also known locally as the 'Devils of Cornhill' or the 'Cornhill Devils' were added as finishing touches to taunt the church, to spite the vicar - or so the tale goes.
The church has been a space for Christian worship since the Romans. It's also said that one of these demonic figures was specifically modelled to share the facial features of the clergyman.
One is conveniently placed by the entrance of the church, creating a juxtaposition of worship and a cursing demon. Another is sitting right at the top, observing passers by. The last one is easy to miss as it's the smallest in comparison to the other two, but upon closer look, you can see the malignant ghoul just below the larger one.
None of them have the same face, but all are equally frightening.
Though there is no proof that the legend is true, this trio of demonic figures sculpted into the terracotta building continues to leer over Londoners.
So if you're strolling around the area, don't forget to look up - there's something sinister watching you.
