Total cheat answer … all the spots that are pending opening. Isn’t there some kind of original floor or street some where? I am 🇨🇦 so my details are VERY dodgy. 💕 will love tagging along with you two no matter where you go. 😎
As an American I’m always jealous of your history and finds. I find some Native American artifacts but since there was no metal work, the best you can find is flint knapped points. So, to answer your question, almost anywhere with good history/finds and your great commentary.
I like how relatable this is, with two charming young women sharing their enthusiasm for Roman London. I am always impressed with the engineering skiils of the Romans and laugh at some of the silly "modern " buildings we put up today. Thanks for the journey.
Thanks for the trip round the wall, have done the wall in bits on different days, but never new about the bit in the modern office block, will try and book. Not long been to leadenhall market, new about the basilica but did not go and see. Somewhere just to the side of the city of London museum is a small road where we booked a tour and was taken underground to show us a vast area of Roman artitecture, but cannot remember name, keep up the videos, love exploring London, some good historical walks
Thanks Kim! Will have to try and find out who was doing the tour 🤔 could be a part we don’t know about and can add to another video! So will investigate! The one we booked in the Bloomberg Building is definitely worth a visit next time your in London! 🙌❤️
It’s incredible you can still find traces of it even in the street names! Once you start looking I’m sure there’s a lot more hiding in plain sight! ❤️ Thanks for watching!! 🙏
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. We will be travelling to England this September and your tour has helped me find some really cool stuff to add to our plans. 🇬🇧 I’d love to see more like this. Thanks, Karyn 🥰🌼
terrific vid! thank you for posting..try All Hallows by the Tower Church next time..lots of history and close to the Tower-they have a preserved Roman Mosaic floor on display below the current surface of the church.
Amazing video. I only recently found out there were still huge sections of Roman walls standing in London. I don't like London but I need to pay it a visit just for these places.
I enjoyed your video even more than I thought I would. Some content creators fail when they try something new/different, you two did it just as good as your digging videos. Well done Ladies.
We had a lot of fun making it! Glad you enjoyed it as much as our digging videos! Our next video will be digging as we’re out in the fields this week! Felt like we’ve learnt so much with these new edits 🙌 ❤️
Nice, nice, nice. How good was that! I knew a little about the Roman stuff but I found your enthusiasm most infectious (in a good way lol). Thanks; will be looking forward to more. You got yourself another sub 🤗
Very cool history, esp the old Mithraeum in the middle of the modern new building! I live near Seattle and probably will never get to London, so thank you! 🙂
The juxtaposition between modern and Roman London was fascinating. I really had to laugh at the idea that there’s a corner of a Roman basilica in the basement of a hair salon. (And also, Ellie’s hair looked magnificent in that part of the video. I can’t believe that was an accident.)
Thank you for such an informative and interesting video. I had no idea about the Bloomsberg collection, it will be on my list of sites to visit when I get the chance to get to London again.
Thank you Barbara! We highly recommend the Mithraeum at the Bloomberg space! It was unknown to us as well and was a welcoming retreat from the busy streets of London. We’ll be releasing an article tomorrow with details on the sites we visited! 🙏❤️
Yep Yep.....been to London twice.....seen a bit of Roman things there but I NEED to come back and see a lot more!!!! Thanks for the Tour!!!! Cheers from Mississippi 😎😎
Ooo! This was so fun! I really enjoyed this. Those red bricks that show level are sublime. SUCH epic function in form that has last for centuries. 💕🇨🇦💕
Definitely one to do next visit! Hoping we can include it when we do the bath house in April. We might have to do an ultimate guide and include the museums as well! 😂
Great tour. There is another large section of London Wall in the car park under London Wall Street, just by where you started your walk. I think it’s in parking bay 42. Yes really! I found it by accident. Maybe time for a third visit!
Haha we keep hearing about the car park wall!! We’re still trying to get access to the bath house as well 😂 so a third tour could definitely be on the cards🤞
Happy to show you the wall in the car park, and the piece near Cripplegate, if you don’t mind being shown around by a blind person. I live in the Barbican so it’s my stamping ground.
Really fascinating. Did not know the cult of Mithras also happened in Roman Britain. I saw a temple in the lower levels of the church of San Clemente in Rome, very near the Coliseum.
@@RomanFound I’m sure the temple beneath The Basilica of San Clemente isn’t the only temple devoted to Mithras found in Rome. But the way it was found was most unusual. Google it. I visit it and tour the underground space each time I go back to Rome because it’s just so incredible. True example of how Rome has always built on top of other edifices
@@RomanFound Clearly Roman history fascinates you. You should visit. The first time you go to the Coliseum and walk the forum you feel like you’re in another world. Maybe you’ve already been. If you haven’t, it’s totally worth the time and money. I know of a very inexpensive safe hotel because I’ve stayed there. Let me know if you want the name
Hi Ted! I'm not sure if anyone knows where the exact location is but I found an interesting easter egg on the Portable Antiquities Scheme website which reports the location to be Lat: 51.5002 Lon: -0.12624 This location is strangely St Margaret’s Church, Westminster Abbey where in 1910 a silver denarius of the Emperor Antoninus Puis was found and recorded at the British Museum.
TY. Hard to believe that the Roman's were minting coins in Londinium. Was also surprised they had a mint in Trier in what is now Germany. They had quite a few more all over their Empire.
@@tedlawrence4189 the Roman coins and artefacts that we find in our digging videos come from all over the empire. They had such a large operation in Britain that lasted centuries it would make sense they would start to produce coins and goods over here. Would be amazing if one day the mint was discovered! Probably underneath a building somewhere 😂
After the Roman's left Britian the quality of the coinage detiorated.Celtic coins are primitive. Was not until 1400-1500 that there was major improvement. Now the big question: why do Brit's call french fries chips? Lol.
