Tower Green, Public square in Tower Hamlets, England

Tower Green is an open lawn inside the Tower of London, south of the Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula, between the Queen's House and the Beauchamp Tower. The grass, laid out since 1890, is crossed by a paved strip running east to west, and the ground slopes about a metre to the south. In the middle a small square plot of granite setts, ordered by Queen Victoria, marks the spot believed to be the scaffold site.

Tower Green lies within the inner ward of the Tower of London, its area brought inside the fortress walls by Henry III's 13th-century building works. The north part served as the burial ground of St Peter ad Vincula into the 19th century. A brick guardhouse, the Old Main Guard, stood east of the Beauchamp Tower from before 1562 until its demolition in 1680. Executions took place here between 1483 and 1743.

The green takes its name from the Tower and has long served as an open garden for the fortress's residents; since 1890 it has been covered with grass. A granite strip divides the lawn east to west, and beside it stands a memorial to seven people beheaded here. The memorial was ordered by Queen Victoria in 1866, after the Yeoman Warders showed her a marked spot in 1861 when she asked where Anne Boleyn died.

Tower Green lies inside the Tower of London's inner ward, south of the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula, between the Queen's House and the Beauchamp Tower. It is reached through the fortress itself, so visiting depends on the Tower's opening and ticket arrangements. The lawn slopes about a metre down toward the south, and a paved strip crosses it east to west.

The granite paving in the middle of the lawn was ordered by Queen Victoria in 1866, after a Yeoman Warder showed her a roped-off spot as Anne Boleyn's execution site in 1861. Historians doubt that identification, and some place the scaffold on the parade ground between the White Tower and the Waterloo Block.
