Tower Hill Memorial
Tower Hill Memorial, War memorial in Trinity Square Gardens, London, England.
Tower Hill Memorial in Trinity Square Gardens is a limestone structure with a vaulted colonnade and bronze panels inscribed with names. The memorial forms part of a sunken garden area with walls displaying the inscribed names throughout the space.
The memorial's first section honoring World War I casualties was built in 1928 following a design by architect Edwin Lutyens. A later addition expanded the memorial to include those who died in World War II.
The memorial honors merchant seafarers and fishermen who lost their lives during the world wars without marked graves. Visitors can walk past bronze panels inscribed with names, creating a space for remembrance.
The memorial is located close to Tower Hill underground station and can be visited daily. The site is wheelchair accessible with clear pathways throughout the gardens.
The memorial was designed by Edward Maufe and includes sculptures representing the Seven Seas. These artistic elements blend the remembrance with symbolic representations of the maritime world.
