When Tower Bridge was first built, it raised between 20-30 times a day. The Engine Rooms were once the beating heart of Tower Bridge with over 80 people needed to maintain the engines and raise the Bridge.

Tower Bridge was built over 120 years ago to ease road traffic while maintaining river access to the busy Pool of London docks. Built with giant moveable roadways that lift up for passing ships, it is to this day considered an engineering marvel and beyond being one of London’s favourite icons, it is arguably one of the most famous and instantly recognisable structures in the entire world.
