North entrance, Blackwall Tunnel, London, 20th Century
North entrance, Blackwall Tunnel, London, 20th Century. Designed by the London County Councils chief engineer Alexander Binnie (1839-1917), the Blackwall Tunnel beneath the Thames opened in 1897. The latest techniques were used in its construction, including the employment of James Henry Greatheads (1844-1896) tunnelling shield. The tunnel was lined with glazed white brick and lit by electric light. It had two lanes for wheeled traffic and footpaths for pedestrians.
