St Stephen's Tower, London

St Stephen's Tower is part of the World Heritage Site of the Palace of Westminster.

St 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



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
