THE DAY BEFORE YOU, HISTORY JUST BENEATH YOUR FEET. 15 | 16 THE FIRST CITY OF LONDON Two thousand years ago, at a strategic Thames crossing, Britannia’s most important city was founded. Within seven years of the Roman invasion of AD 43, Londinium was established around a strategic crossing point with deep water access to the Thames’ north bank, now the heart of the modern City. The new settlement swiftly became a major trading post, the centre of the road network of the new Roman province of Britannia. As new quays opened to ships from the Empire, the boom town of Londinium roared into life – a city of wooden houses and shops the writer Tacitus described as ‘a very important and busy centre for traders and goods’. A mere ten years later, this first town was razed to the ground by Queen Boudica and her rebels. But Londinium was too important to fail. The wooden quays – including those discovered at Landmark Place – were rebuilt and expanded, and the town grew on a more ambitious scale. With a new amphitheatre, and a forum basilica for conducting business and upholding the law, Londinium became the capital of Roman Britain. “I find it thrilling that Roman Londinium and “Landmark Place is exceptional – the modern City somehow exist side by side, an opportunity to live in style on the as if at any moment we could slip between riverfront, in the heart of the City, and in them through a crack in time.” the very place where London began.” CAROLINE MCDONALD GARY PATRICK SENIOR CURATOR REGIONAL SALES DIRECTOR MUSEUM OF LONDON BARRATT LONDON LOCATION St Paul’s Cathedral The Bank of England Heron Tower Leadenhall Building 20 Fenchurch Street 30 St Mary Axe Monument The Tower of London Tower Bridge 17 | 18 The River Thames Old Billingsgate Customs House Set amongst some of London’s most iconic structures, Landmark Place stands proudly on the north bank of the Thames.
