THE THAMES TUNNEL
Sir,-The first tunnel under the Thames was constructed about 1851 for foot passengers only, One entrance: was near the Tower of London, and the other was in Bermondsey on the other side of the river. The other tunnel was, I believe, constructed for the L.B. and Si Railway. It extended from Rotherhithe to Wapping. During my younger days I used to travel through the tunnels quite
a lot.
