London Bridge is a bridge over the River Thames, connecting the City of London and Southwark.
The current crossing, which opened to traffic in 1973, is the latest in a series of bridges that have stood at this location since the Roman period.
London Bridge has been depicted in its several forms, in art, literature, and songs, including the nursery rhyme 'London Bridge Is Falling Down'.
