?1 entry to Tower Bridge for Southwark residents


Recommended Posts

Hi


Someone else posted this in the Lounge section, but I thought it might be helpful to have the details in the family section as well.


Kids under 5 are admitted free to Tower Bridge, and adults able to provide a photo ID and proof of Southwark residence (e.g. utility bill, council tax bill) can enter for ?1.


I took my son last week and it was a great day out. It was a short walk, beside the river, from London Bridge station and we chose a day where the bridge was scheduled to lift twice, which was exciting to watch. There are lifts up to the walkways, so you'll have no problem taking a pram, and there is a really large disabled / baby changing toilet next to the lift that takes you downstairs. Kids are also given a really nice free workbook and pencil.


Once you come out of Tower Bridge, there is a second lift a short walk away, which will take you down to the same level as the engine room (cool for kids who like to see big machines / how things work).

    • I think insurance scams do happen but I thought there had been a crackdown on them recently. In the past insurance companies seemed to just pay out and everyone's premium goes up to cover it. My partner was a victim a few years ago, she was parking and touched a bumper of the next car. There was no mark and the other driver just waved my partner away. A month later we received a letter claiming there were four people in the other car and two of them were so badly injured they could not work. Our insurer was a rare one that actually fought the case and pretty much on the steps of the court the scammers "dropped hands" and case was closed. i thought at the time that was a good result but I later saw that my insurer had run up a £2000 legal bill and didn't get to ask for costs as there was no court case – we didn't have to pay it but again, it's this sort of thing that pushes all premiums up. And no action was taken against the other party despite them clearly being scammers who were revealed to have done this before and had effectively admitted their own statements were a pack of lies. Sorry to hijack your thread, just getting this off my chest as your post brought it all flooding back!  
    • Can't help you with the introduction to Joey, but just a random word of thanks to you @Herbie Russell Southwark News! Your name is on a lot of the Southwark News articles that get posted on here. There's no local democracy or local community without local media, so thank you for what you do! 👍   
    • Our child is in their last term at Goose Green, and after 7 wonderful years we are very sad to be leaving such a wonderful school and it’s special community. Being 2 form entry, It’s one of the smaller schools in the area and it’s also very diverse with an amazing spirit. Brilliant Art and Music departments, staff and a new library. 
    • Send me your address and I’ll attend tomorrow.
