All Hallows by the Tower

Situated just moments from the Tower of London, All Hallows by the Tower is London’s oldest surviving church.

The tower's height is about 316 ft and includes over 334 steps from the base to the top. Big Ben is designed in Pugin's Gothic revival style and is commonly used in the shot of film sets in London.
