The Post Office Tower London
The Post Office Tower was opened to the public by Postmaster-General Anthony Wedgwood Benn in 1966. The Tower was a symbol of Britain's telecommunications revolution. At the time it was also Britain's tallest building and became a major tourist attraction.
This leaflet provides factual information for visitors about the operational side of the Tower and facilities for the public including the viewing galleries and the Top of the Tower revolving restaurant and cocktail bar. The price of admission in 1969 was four shillings for adults and two shillings for children under 14 years of age.
