The Tower of London, officially Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress of the Tower of London, is a historic castle on the north bank of the River Thames in central London. It lies within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, which is separated from the eastern edge of the square mile of the City of London by the open space known as Tower Hill. It was founded towards the end of 1066 as part of the Norman Conquest. The White Tower, which gives the entire castle its name, was built by William the Conqueror in 1078 and was a resented symbol of oppression, inflicted upon London by the new ruling elite. The castle was also used as a prison from 1100 (Ranulf Flambard) until 1952 (Kray twins),[3] although that was not its primary purpose. A grand palace early in its history, it served as a royal residence. As a whole, the Tower is a complex of several buildings set within two concentric rings of defensive walls and a moat. There were several phases of expansion, mainly under kings Richard I, Henry III, and Edward I in the 12th and 13th centuries. The general layout established by the late 13th century remains despite later activity on the site.

I must say though that the title is misleading, since you guys have a slightly upscaled version than the real one-
I don't live in England, so I might be wrong, but it seems that on the internet that the scaling is 27x33x36. and your's are rather 37x40xNot concluded. I still love the build though!
Thanks for the + feedback tho
I used information I quickly gathered from net and compared to the blocks I could see in the close-up!
I'm pretty sure it's still canon that one block is one meter, so I thought it would be accurate
