ourenglishheritage:  Big Ben, Westminster, London cc73_02867 Originally Big Ben was the name of the Great Bell of Westminster, although today it is also generally used to refer to the clock and St Stephen’s Tower. The clock was designed by Biddell Airey. The criteria for the clock was thought to be unreasonable by many as it was required to be correct to within one second and checked via telegraph twice a day with the Royal Observatory in Greenwich.
