About Roman London's Amphitheatre

The amphitheatre was first discovered in 1988 when short stretches of Roman wall were observed at the bottom of four archaeological investigation trenches. The findings were instantly famous and the site became a protected monument. The City of London was keen to integrate the remains into its proposals for a new Art Gallery and in 1992 work started, with the excavations taking place at the same time as construction over six years. Since the dig finished the remains have been protected in a controlled environment in which they could dry out slowly, thus preventing damage to the ancient masonry.
