	London Bridge
		This London Bridge, the first of stone, and in its day regarded as one of the `modern wonders of the world`, was opened in 1209.

		During the 19th century, London was being transformed by the increase in rail and road traffic, creating demand for new bridges, subways and tunnels.
		This was funded by the Bridge House Estates Fund, for whom the City of London Corporation were the trustees, with the commission of £30,000 being paid to the Architect, Horace Jones, and Wolfe Barry “in such proportions as they may mutually agree upon for their services in respect thereof".
		Today, while river traffic is lighter, requiring the bridge to be lifted less frequently, it remains one of the main road transport arteries serving the eastern part of London and one of the most instantly recognisable structures in the world.

	A bridge not far enough wins royal dedication
		THE royal dedication of London's first new bridge across the Thames for nearly 30 years was fittingly marked yesterday by plenty of pomp and circumstance.

		The Queen maintained her aplomb and said: "I dedicate this bridge, as a symbol of the new Millennium, to the peoples of Southwark and the City of London and to all who shall pass over it from all over the world."

		However, following recent declines in urban populations of several species, notably House Sparrow and Starling, the study of urban birds is now a major conservation issue.
		Parks and gardens are the main contributors to urban biodiversity, and an understanding of the factors that make these habitats more attractive to birds would both greatly enhance our ability to improve urban habitats for wildlife and add to our knowledge of this generally neglected area of ecology.
		The British Trust for Ornithology’s London Bird Project was largely funded by the Bridge House Trust, the grant giving arm of the Corporation of London, to assess the value of the city’s green spaces (including private gardens) for birds and to suggest ways of managing them for the benefit of birds.
