Under the section "Certain Artistic Works on Public Display" which
references the 1988 UK copyright act:

"A building which is a work of architecture may be freely photographed and
that photograph reproduced; however the model for that work of architecture
can only be photographed if it is permanently situated in a public place or
in premises open to the public. The architect's drawings for the same
building may not be photographed without the permission of the architect."
