The campanile was built by Decimus Burton and built in the 1840's. It is 32.42m (107ft) high and was originally designed as a water tower and chimney for the Palm House to which it is connected by a tunnel. However, it was not very successful and two chimneys had to be fitted within the Palm House until a new boiler house was built close to the Campanile which then resumed its original purpose. Measured to the closest centimetre! But there's a minor mystery here, as 32.42m is closer to 106 than to 107 ft. So if you're going to Kew Gardens, be sure to pack your theodolite.
