The octagonal shape of Lady Rupert’s Bedroom allows for a bed alcove and several walk-in closets. A favorite gown has been reinterpreted as a skirt for the dressing table.

I like they framed the hood vent in a tiled wall alcove.

Dead Man’s Hole

One wonders how many tourists have walked into the Tower Bridge Exhibition without giving a passing glance to the white-tiled alcove just before the entrance. Located underneath the northern end of the bridge, signs tell those who are paying attention that this is the Dead Man’s Hole.

Once upon a time, those unfortunates who drowned in the river (or were thrown in after death) would often wash ashore next to Tower Bridge. Dead Man’s Hole served as a mortuary; the tiles were used in the décor as they were apparently easier to wipe clean, if any of the decomposing corpses happened to, well, burst (or maybe they kept the place cooler in summer to prevent such occurrences).

There are also accounts of wherrymen selling bodies they found in the river at this location – the medical students of St Bart’s reputedly paid six pence more per body than the students of Guy’s Hospital on the southern banks.

Collections of china are an obviously suitable form of decoration for dining rooms and here alcoves originally designed as bookshelves are used to display Imari bowls and plates, their dominant blues and reds reflecting the colours of the roses on the walls.
