  • Tower Bridge
    Tower Bridge Tower Bridge was opened in 1894, and at the time was the largest bascule bridge in the world. The bascules are the two central lower parts that lift up for tall boats and ships to pass under the bridge. It took 8 years to build, 432 construction workers and 11000 tons of steel. It is an iconic building in London and is known around the world as well as playing host to events such as the London Marathon. Stink and Stench For many years, most of the city’s rubbish, food and toilet waste was dumped in the river! In 1858, the smell coming from the river was so disgusting that Parliament (which is on the banks of the Thames) had to be suspended. Consequently, the government decided to find a way to rid the Thames of sewage. Along came Sir Joseph Bazalgette who built a sewerage system for London. Frozen History Before the 19th century, cold winter temperatures would sometimes freeze the surface of the Thames. ‘Frost Fairs’ would be held on the ice, where Londoners could dance, skate and drink. The last fair was in 1814 and it appears unlikely there will ever be another one because the river now flows too quickly for the water to freeze. Thames Frost Fair, 1683-84, Thomas Wyke The Tower of London Since 1066, when William the Conqueror founded it, The Tower of London has stood on the North bank of the Thames. Over its long history, the Tower of London has hosted Kings and Queens as well as being a prison.
