About this Event

In the year 43 Roman troops arrived in Britain; soon the new Roman colony of Britannia was established. Meanwhile a small settlement called Londinium came into being on the banks of the Tamesis river.
Londinium is where London’s story really starts, growing from a place of trade and traders to become the new capital of Roman Britain. But this growth was prompted by a bloody catastrophe.
Meet in the porch of St Magnus Martyr Church, Lower Thames Street (nearest station Monument Underground Station, Fish Street Hill exit).
The tour will finish approximately two hours later, near St Paul's and Barbican Underground Stations.
