Default "'Euston Arch' stones to be saved"

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/8055034.stm

Excerpts...
---quote---
Stones believed to be part of a giant arch that used to stand at
Euston railway station are being retrieved from an east London
waterway.
[...]
The stones are being lifted from the Prescott Channel, where they were
used to fill a hole in the riverbed.
[...]
British Waterways will lift the stones from the channel, near Bromley-
by-Bow, on Monday to enable barges to use the lock to transport
materials in and out of the Olympic Park for the 2012 Games.

[...] the Euston Arch Trust [...] wants to rebuild the arch between
two existing lodges on Euston Road.
