White
Tower, the massive rectangular fortress at the center
of the Tower of London, was constructed about 1078 as the
castle keep for William the Conqueror. It is the oldest
and largest building of this type in England. Traitor's Gate,
foreground, was constructed by Edward I about 1278 to provide
accommodations for the King and a new water entrance. It
is referred to as "Traitor's
Gate" because of the number of prisoners accused of
treason who supposedly passed through itmost notably
Queen Anne Boleyn and Sir Thomas More.
