Tower Bridge

Tower Bridge was a London bridge, over which people could cross the River Thames. The road which crossed the bridge was called Tower Bridge Road. While its northern landfall was located just beyond the eastern wall of the Tower of London, (TV: The Lie of the Land) its southern landfall was located in the London Borough of Southwark.
== History ==
The Fifth Doctor's TARDIS materialised near the bridge in 1984. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks)

In 2023, on a Tuesday, a rift appeared on Tower Bridge. It allowed through an orb of crackling energy which turned out to contain a time-shifted H. P. Lovecraft. Before it revealed its passenger, however, the orb damaged the concrete and several nearby cars, causing multiple casualties. As a result, police and MI5 forces closed the Bridge to the public and called in P.R.O.B.E. to resolve the situation. After P.R.O.B.E. helped send Lovecraft safely back through the rift even though he'd lost the protection of the orb, the portal collapsed in on itself. (AUDIO: Guardian At The Gate)

VFX shots of the CyberKing in London, in 2008's The Next Doctor, had to be fixed by The Mill after producer Susie Liggat noticed that 1851 London contained the Tower Bridge, which wouldn't be built for another four or so decades.
