Search Results - Tower of London

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress, more commonly known as the Tower of London (and historically as The Tower), is a historic fortress and scheduled monument in central London, England, on the north bank of the River Thames. It is located within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and is separated from the eastern edge of the City of London by the open space known as Tower Hill. It is the oldest building used by the British government. [1]

The Tower of London is often identified with the White Tower, the original stark square fortress built by William the Conqueror[1] in 1078. However, the tower as a whole is a complex of several buildings set within two concentric rings of defensive walls and moat.

The tower's primary function was a fortress, a royal palace, and a prison (particularly for high status and royal prisoners, such as the Princes in the Tower and the future Queen Elizabeth I). This last use has led to the phrase "sent to the Tower" (meaning "imprisoned"). It has also served as a place of execution and torture, an armoury, a treasury, a zoo, the Royal Mint, a public records office, an observatory, and since 1303, the home of the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom.

Today the Tower of London is cared for by an independent charity, Historic Royal Palaces, which receives no funding from the Government or the Crown. [2]

6. Enjoy Some Summer Fun in the Capital
August 24, 2009

Regarded as one of the most exciting cities in the world, London is an amazing place to visit. Brimming with cultural diversity, historical significance and places of interest, it is a great destination to head to at any time of year. However, due to its huge array of outdoor activities, it can be argued that the summer time offers the visitor that little something extra. Indeed, there are not many people who will turn down the opportunity of sitting back in the sunshine, sipping a cold drink and soaking up the ambient atmosphere whilst deciding which of the many open-air festivals, con...

7. Iconic Civil and Structural Engineering - Tower Bridge
August 12, 2009

Looking today at the broad Thames snaking its way through the heart of the capital, it's hard to believe that there was once only one bridge crossing the river - London Bridge. As the city grew, so did the number of crossing points and in 1876 a public competition invited ideas for building a new bridge downstream from London Bridge without disrupting river traffic. Although more than 50 designs were submitted, it was to be eight years before an acceptable solution was found in the form of a 'bascule' design by the City Architect, Horace Jones ('bascule' being French for see-saw). Sadly, altho... (read more)
