The last time I was there they put some stupid wood bench across it to make it "presentable". But before they did that you could actually see the wear on the stone from "over use". It was hard to believe that Henry the 8th actually used this!!!!
Plan a full day for the Abby and a full day for the Tower of London. go off season like in October. The crowds thin out. The Tower is nice and you can take a walk by the Thames and then across Tower Bridge. One time when we went the room that held the Royal Jewels was empty. It was me and one or two other people in there. But I'm sure there were like 50 cameras on me watching. Those jewels are SO large they don't even look real. A diamond that is as big as a door knob.
