Victims and debris was scattered over a 130 miles stretch of southwest Scotland, with both wings and some of the fuselage landing in Sherwood Crescent in Lockerbie. Tower of London: The Tower of London is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Britain. Nowadays it is a tourist attraction but over history it had many different uses. Its original use was as a fortress; palace and prison, particularly for high profile and religious captives. It was also used as a residence by such monarchs as Richard the lionhearted, Henry III and Edward I. It was so used as a prison and place of torture and execution. At one stage it was also a home to a menagerie and boasted a number of big cats such as leopards and lions.
