Abstract
A MORE ABSURD structure than the Tower Bridge was never thrown across a strategic river, wrote artist Sir Frank Brangwyn, referring to the most famous bascule bridge in the world. In fact, Tower Bridge is a fusion of three bridges, two of the suspension category emerging from the north and south banks of London's River Thames, with a central span comprising two leaves, or 'bascules', that can be raised to allow high-masted ships to pass.
