List of tallest buildings in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia List of tallest buildings in the United Kingdom This article is about the tallest skyscrapers in the United Kingdom. For the tallest structures in general, see List of tallest structures in the United Kingdom. Tallest buildings in the United Kingdom. The Shard is the tallest building in the UK This is a list of the tallest buildings in the United Kingdom. As of December 2017 there are 72 habitable buildings in the UK at least 100 metres ( 330 ft ) tall, 59 of them in London, four in Manchester, two in Birmingham, two in Leeds and one each in Brighton and Hove, Liverpool, Portsmouth, Sheffield and Swansea ( the only structure outside England ). The Shard in Southwark, London, is currently the tallest completed building in both the UK and the European Union ; it was topped out at a height of 310 metres ( 1,020 ft ) in March 2012, inaugurated in July 2012 and opened to the public in February 2013. The UK has not been noted historically for its abundance of skyscrapers, with the taller structures throughout the country tending to be cathedrals, church spires and industrial chimneys. Despite this, since the mid-20th century the number of high - rise apartment buildings and office blocks in most large British cities has grown significantly. As of February 2018, there are a further 50 habitable buildings at least 100 metres ( 330 ft ) tall under construction in the UK -- 42 in London, 7 in Greater Manchester and one in Woking.
