Life in the UK Test 20
What name is given to the clock tower at the Houses of Parliament in honour of Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012?
Correct Answer: Elizabeth Tower
The clock tower at the Houses of Parliament was renamed the Elizabeth Tower in honour of Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee in 2012 (60 years on the throne).
"Big Ben" is technically the name of the large bell inside the tower — not the tower itself. However, "Big Ben" is commonly used to refer to the whole structure.
The tower was previously known simply as the Clock Tower.
