Tower Bridge
Tower Bridge
(built 1886–1894) is a combined
bascule
and
suspension bridge
in
London
. The bridge crosses the
River Thames
close to the
Tower of London
and has become an
iconic symbol
of London. Tower Bridge is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the
Bridge House Estates
, a charitable trust overseen by the
City of London Corporation
. It is the only one of the Trust's bridges not to connect the City of London directly to the Southwark bank, as its northern landfall is in the
Tower Hamlets
.
