downtown of the city and other exciting local attractions.
The world famous London bridge was built in England during the 12th century and spanned the
Thames river in London for over 600 years during which time it frequently fell into disrepair.
In 1831 a new bridge was completed and the old one demolished
but by the time the invention of automobile rolled around
it was clear that even this new bridge was not built to handle London's heavy traffic.
In 1967 the city of London sold the historic bridge to Robert mcelock
who dismantled it stone by stone and had it shipped and rebuilt in Lake havasu city.
