To the Tower!
The Tower of London in all its glory looking innocent and majestic yet this was the scene of so much horror- torture and murder and political games. Owned by the Queen it was built by William the Conqueror as a fortified palace. It imprisoned Elizabeth 1 at one point and very much later the Kray twins. It has held the Royal Mint and other offices and of course the Crown Jewels! Note also front left the entry to the Traitors Gate now bricked up.
