Tower Bridge
Anyone know how many stairs from ground level to the walkways of Tower Bridge?
Staggered up them all last night in high heels for Valentine's thingy, would love to know how many there are as they seemed neverending at the time!

P.S. But it seems TB itself does have a lift - http://www.towerbridge.org.uk/NR/rdo...litiesGuide.do

I'm confused - why didn't you take the lift up - that is the normal way to go.
The Monument, which is what PalenQ's link refers to, is exhausting to climb and because of the tight spiral (helix for the pedants) you get really quite dizzy too - even worse on the way down. I did it once with one of my sons which was very brave considering I am scared of heights and have mild claustrophobia!
