The Houses of Parliament - Description:
The Houses of Parliament is also known as the Palace of Westminster and is the meeting place of the two houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom – the House of Commons and the House of Lords - where members of Parliament and the Lords propose and debate new legislation.
After a fire in 1834 most of the existing building was demolished and rebuilt to a 1835 design by Charles Barry which was described by an architectural magazine of the day as “a quadrangular pile, with the principal front facing the Thames, and a tower in the middle”. Because of this orientation, the best view is from the far side of Westminster Bridge on the opposite bank of the river.
The Palace of Westminster has been a part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. The Houses of Parliament - History:
St Edward the Confessor built a royal palace on what was then an island site at about the same time that he built Westminster Abbey (1045-50), and the island and surrounding area soon became known as Westminster. The Palace of Westminster was the monarch’s main residence until fire destroyed most of it in 1512. After that it served as the home of Parliament and almost all subsequent Parliaments have met there.
In 1834 fire destroyed almost every part of the rebuilt Houses of Parliament leaving only Westminster Hall, the detached Jewel Tower and the Undercroft Chapel, Cloisters and Chapter House of St Stephen’s standing. Immediately after the fire, King William IV offered Buckingham Palace to Parliament hoping to dispose of a building that he disliked, but his offer was declined.
In 1836 Charles Barry’s proposal for rebuilding the Palace was chosen out of 97 entries. The New Palace was to be much larger than its predecessor and the design incorporated the remains of the Old Palace (with the exception of the Jewel Tower). The design involved reclamation of a significant amount of land from the Thames to enable the building of the principal facade. Construction started in 1840 and was completed in the late 1850s.
In the Second World War the Palace of Westminster was hit by bombs on 14 occasions. One night in 1941 incendiary bombs set alight the chamber of the House of Commons and the roof of Westminster Hall. Fire fighters managed to save Westminster Hall but the chamber was destroyed. The Commons Chamber was rebuilt after the war under architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and was completed in 1950.
