Roman City Walk
I went on the guided walk about the ancient Roman city of Londonium, roughly the square mile of the City of London today. Most of the Roman bits of the city are not visible, they are about forty feet underneath the existing city. Still it was neat to know where everything was located as compared to the locations of buildings and sites today. My pictures actually make it seem like I was on a Wren tour as we went by several of his churches.
A portion of the old Roman wall(the part visible in the photo is actually medieval)
The Guildhall of London, you can see the 15th century part with later additions. Located on the site of a former Roman amphitheater(you can still see it if you go inside, I didn't get a chance to)
