Here we have part of the largest surviving section of the Roman wall, which the Legions built around their colony of Londinium around 200AD, following the revolt by Queen Boudica of the Iceni. It is preserved by English Heritage, and shows the typical Roman tile bonding courses near the base. All in all, an impressive piece of engineering by the Romans.
