The Outer Ward
The Outer Ward is another notable feature of the Tower of London. It is the area surrounding the inner bailey, or central courtyard, of the fortress and was originally used as a training ground for the Tower’s garrison. Over time, the Outer Ward became an important part of the Tower’s defensive system, with a range of buildings and fortifications built to protect the fortress from attack. One of the most notable buildings in the Outer Ward is the White Tower, which is the central keep of the Tower of London. It was built in the 11th century by William the Conqueror and was originally used as a royal palace and a fortress. Over the centuries, the White Tower has been used for a variety of purposes, including as a prison, a treasury, and a storehouse for arms and ammunition.

The Byward Tower has played a significant role in English history
The Byward Tower has played a significant role in English history, serving as a prison for many notable figures over the centuries. Among its most famous prisoners were Sir Thomas More, who was held there before his execution in 1535, and Anne Boleyn, who was imprisoned there before her execution in 1536. The tower has also been used as a royal residence, with King Henry VIII staying there with his new bride, Catherine Howard, in 1540. The Byward Tower was important as last stand in a series of defenses guarding the land entrance to the fortress. There were the twin towers of the Middle Tower, the drawbridge (no longer there) in the middle of the causeway, and (within the Byward Tower) one portcullis, the gates, and the second portcullis.
