Big Ben Miniature Lilliput Lane CollectableHand made and hand painted model of Big Ben - in miniature!
Completed in 1854, the bells of the Great Clock of
Westminster rang across London for the first time on 31st
May 1859 and Parliament had a special sitting to decide on
a suitable name for the great hour bell. The most accepted
version of how it got its name, was that it was named after
Sir Benjamin Hall - who spoke at length about it at this
special sitting of parliament and we have known it as Big
Ben ever since.
