Images showing section through showing the tunnel underneath the River Thames crowded with sailing ships and a paddle steamer, the Thames Tunnel archways at left, and Shield for excavating tunnel at right. Text stating THE THAMES TUNNEL, OPEN TO THE PUBLIC EVERY DAY (Sundays Excepted). From Nine In The Morning, Till Dusk. The Archways Are Lighted With Oil Gas; The Work Is Dry, And The Descent By A Large Staircase, And Perfectly Easy To Ascend And Descend. THE WORKS HAVE BEEN RESUMED.
The Tunnel's construction started in 1825 and, after various flood accidents and a long period of suspension of work between 1828 and 1835, the Tunnel finally opened to the public on 25 March 1843. It was received with great excitement both during and immediately after its construction. However, in 1865 it was sold to the East London Railway Company and converted into a railway tunnel in 1869. The body of this text tells the history of the tunnel up to 1835, when work resumed.); © Elton Collection, Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust. © Bridgeman Images
