Tower of London

1951

“The year was 1951, and life carried on—even in the shadow of a fortress.”

Not many can say they did their washing at the Tower of London! This rare glimpse into everyday life behind those ancient walls reminds us that history isn’t just battles and kings—it’s laundry days, quiet routines, and ordinary moments in extraordinary places.

Who else remembers when the Yeoman Warders and their families actually lived inside the Tower?
