The new web site is aimed at exciting interest amongst supporters all over the world, and of course it will be a major publicity tool for our Fundraising Appeal.

We've also created a Facebook page for the project - there's not much on it yet, but please join as a fan! That's at

But keep looking at the Tower web site as well - we'll use that to let our members know about items relating to the Tower's specific plans for the building.

THE BIG DIG

The Museum of London has completed a second phase of excavating the site. The base of "The Theatre" found last year has been uncovered again, and a more detailed study of the surrounding area has given more information about the remains. No major new finds have been found, but there are some interesting artifacts and and a series of later buildings have also been revealed.
In conjunction with the Museum, the Tower has hosted a series of visits to spread the word about what's been found and what our plans are. Visitors have included several well-known actors, lots of press, TV and radio journalists, local councillors and planning staff, and of course many of our own members.
