Reviews
"Beautifully displayed, remember to clock the outside ring they have built into the flagstones to get the size."
"Fantastic place to be, fantastic fantastic staff. Make you feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble for them. Definitely going again. Thank you."
"A hidden jem, if you are interested in Roman history. Very well presented and a superb temple ruin. Free entry"
"Interesting information about Londinium, and how an amphitheatre proves the importance of the location. Although the remains are not much, I recommend it while combining a visit to the art gallery that encloses the amphitheatre. Entrance is via the art gallery, and the amphitheatre is underground, beneath a church."
"Amazing hidden gem in London! This is a must for history buffs. This wonderfully preserved Roman site is incredible and the story behind its' discovery and preservation is interesting and inspirational too. Definitely a site to give you 'goosebumps!'"
