On this day: Post office tower - Duerr's

On this day: Post office tower

On this day in 1965, the Post Office Tower was officially opened. The tower was used to carry telecommunications traffic however because much of this information was sensitive, it was kept a secret, despite being the tallest building in Britain at the time and built in Central London! The tower didn’t appear on any maps until the 1990s!
