Go BackSt Stephen's Tower, also called Central Tower, is a 91 metre (300ft) tower in the Palace of Westminster. This makes it the shortest of the three main towers of the Palace. Unlike the other towers, St Stephen's Tower has a spire. The Tower is directly above the Central Lobby, ans is octagonal in shape.
The original purpose of St Stephen's Tower was as a high-level air intake. Between Westminster Hall and the Old Palace Yard, there is a small tower that contains the main entrance to the House of Common. It is known as St Stephen's entrance.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
