EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures the view down the second tunnel beneath the Thames, a remarkable engineering feat that connected Tower Hill to Tooley Street near London Bridge Station. The tunnel, made from a circular iron tube 7 feet in diameter and laid deep in the clay of the river bed, is a testament to Isambard's innovative design and construction techniques.
Dating back to 1869, this image showcases an important piece of London's history and infrastructure. The Rotherhithe Tunnel was the first of its kind, paving the way for future underground passages throughout the city. The depth at which it was constructed highlights the challenges faced by engineers during this time period.
The intricate details captured in this photograph offer a glimpse into Victorian-era technology and architecture. From the circular shape of the tunnel to its impressive size, every aspect speaks to Isambard's ingenuity and vision for modern transportation systems.
As we reflect on this image from over 150 years ago, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of urban development and connectivity. This print serves as a reminder of London's rich history and ongoing commitment to innovation in infrastructure projects.
