Haunted Bridges

Tower Bridge/Dead Mans Hole

Constructed 1894 | London Dead Man’s Hole actually refers to a mortuary that at one time was housed beneath the north tower of the bridge.

 

As you’ll probably be aware, the Thames is tidal, and for one reason or another, corpses that found their way in to the river; either suicide, by accident or dumped, those executed at the Tower of London, only a stone’s throw away, were also transferred to Dead Man’s Hole.
