The model shows the bridge in two different eras, representing how it looked in 1440 on one side, with the other side hidden until visitors enter the next gallery, when they see the bridge as it looked by 1600.
It's just one of many interesting exhibits at the Museum. For more, see http://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/Docklands/
You'll find another interesting model in St Magnus the Martyr Church, Fish Street Hill, EC3, plus footings from the original London Bridge.

I love it! I discovered this model during Jack the Ripper's exhibition a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I love your site, I'm always taking notes for my next trip to London ;)
