Big Ben,
looking west from
the Westminster Bridge.
(Bridge
ornamentation to
the left.)
It struck 2:00 as I approached the bridge.
Looking up at the North &
West faces.
Note guard fence at
bottom, protecting Parliament.
Big Ben's tower is really large.
(7 windows
across each side.)
And, from the west, towards Whitehall and Parliament Square.
Nearly time to strike the quarter hour.
Note the EIIR (Elizabeth Rex II) wrought iron crown decorations which double as a part of the spiky fence around Parliament.
