The remarkable discovery was made during an archaeological investigation commissioned by Hertshten Properties, who plan to redevelop their commercial building at 85 Gracechurch Street. MOLA was tasked with ensuring no historically significant remains were disturbed during construction.
Recognizing the value of the find, Hertshten Properties now aims to incorporate the Roman ruins into their renovation plans. In collaboration with MOLA and the London Museum, they envision a new public exhibition space that will offer visitors an immersive experience of Roman London.
