The Tower of London, since William the Conqueror began to build the White Tower in 1078, has an important part in British history as a fortress, palace, prison, place of execution, zoo, mint and jewel house. Recent discoveries have changed our understanding of the history and archaeology of the building and the author of this study incorporates recent information and anecdotes about those who, for whatever reason, have found themselves residing in the Tower.
