Coronations of every king or queen (except two) spanning 900 years have been held here. The Abbey was refounded in the 11th century by a king - Edward the Confessor - and the strong royal link and status have been maintained ever since.

Queen Victoria found the palace too small for her growing family so an east wing was added in 1847. This was remodeled in 1913 to the present stern but dignified classical style.

They were heavily influenced by ancient amphitheatres, but had also been exposed to the ideas of Gottfried Semper while he was working at the South Kensington Museum. The Hall was constructed mainly of Fareham Red brick, with terra cotta block decoration. The dome on top was made of steel and glazed. The Royal Albert Hall is one of the UK's most treasured and distinctive buildings, recognisable the world over.

Tower Bridge The bridge was officially opened on 30 June 1894 by the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII, and his wife, Alexandra of Denmark. Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge over the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, which gives it its name. Jones' engineer, Sir John Wolfe Barry devised the idea of a bascule bridge 800 feet in length with two towers each 213 feet (65 m) high, built on piers. The central span of 200 feet (61 m) between the towers was split into two equal bascules or leaves, which could be raised to an angle of 83 degrees to allow river traffic to pass. The bascules, weighing over 1,000 tons each, were counterbalanced to minimize the force required and allow raising in five minutes.

Piccadilly Circus In 1819 Piccadilly Circus was built at the junction with Regent Street, which was then being built under the planning of John Nash. The circus lost its circular form in 1886 with the construction of Shaftesbury Avenue. In this context a circus, from the Latin word meaning a circle, is a circular open space at a street junction. The Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain in Piccadilly Circus was erected in 1893, to commemorate the philanthropic works of Anthony Ashley Cooper, 7th Earl of Shaftesbury. During the Second World War, the statue atop the Shaftesbury Memorial Fountain, The Angel of Christian Charity, was removed, and was replaced by advertising hoardings. It was returned in 1948. When the Circus underwent reconstruction work in the late 1980s, the entire fountain was moved from the centre of the junction at the beginning of Shaftesbury Avenue to its present position at the south-western corner.
