The Bank of England is custodian to the official gold reserves of the United Kingdom and many other countries. The vault, which is situated beneath the City of London, covers a floor space greater than that of the second-tallest building in the City, Tower 42, and needs keys that are three feet long to open.[38] The Bank of England is the fifteenth largest custodian of gold reserves, holding around 310 tonnes.[39]
