Abstract:		 Novocentenary volume of essays by eleven contributors. The Tower's development as a place of manufacture (armour, ordnance, coins), exhibition (animals, armour, Crown Jewels), and research (observatory and records) is dealt with, and an account given (W Reid) of the 19th century defensive plans, particularly the effect of the new Tower Bridge. Detailed analysis of the Bloody Tower (P E Curnow) indicates a 13th century square gatehouse added to a 12th century curtain wall, an inner bay added c 1300, vaulted and covered by a Penn tile floor c 1360, and finally adapted (P R Walker) to a prison for Sir Walter Raleigh. R A Brown suggests that the outer N angle bastions are late medieval. D F R
