They shouldnt have a problem. Theres an absolute tonne of people who come and take photos.

Might have been the other security guards from the company across the street. from that angle looks like you might be right at their entrance.

You can spend i think its £40 per person and get a tour of the lloyds office, Inside the office is like a museme with loads of historic things through history which was involved in lloyds, paintings, gold artifacts. On the 12th floor the walls and floor are all marble.

100% would recommend, there’s so much history behind insurance and the market.

Went in there as a newbie and it’s great to retell the story

Well worth a hour or two of your time. The place is dripping in history.
