View from inside the grounds of the tower.
Boats would come in from there and the prisoners marched up the stone steps.

Formerly St. Thomas's Tower's gate, this is supposedly the entrance where prisoners accused of treason arrived. The vibrations from a water-engine in the basin behind caused the building's partial collapse. It was removed during Salvin's 1860 restoration.
