I was privileged to visit the Tower of London to hear a presentation on the Historic Royal Palaces and their vision for the future of the Tower of London. The recent use of the moat for the poppy display shows how much they have to offer beyond the fabulous museum and jewel house for which the Tower is rightly known. Coming the same week as the opening of the glass walkway at Tower Bridge I think it shows how much the City and the area in and around Tower Ward have to offer.
