  Lambeth Bridge, London : tourist information from TourUK
Lambeth Bridge stands on the site on an ancient landing stage that was in use as far back as the 13th century.
Although an Act was passed in 1809 authorising a bridge at Lambeth, insufficient funds to build the structure meant that the bill eventually lapsed.
