Waterloo Bridge, one of 35 bridges spanning the River Thames, is nestled between Blackfriars Bridge and the iconic Westminster Bridge. Known as the ‘Ladies Bridge,’ it was largely constructed by women during World War II. This historic bridge serves as a gateway to the bustling London Waterloo station and the vibrant South Bank, a cultural hub along the river. Today, visitors can walk across its sturdy span, enjoying views of the city and the flowing Thames, while appreciating the historical significance and the enduring legacy of the women who built it.
