It was very cool - and I was (stupidly) surprised by how much there was to see here. I mean this is London - it's by definition entirely about the history of where ever you're stepping. *g*
There's loads in London that's survived from thousands of years ago - I think precisely because it's London probably gives it a good chance when it's found. In fact today I went Greenwich, and even though they've been purposefully building over stuff for hundreds of years here, when the archaeologists were monitoring a project and found something, it was incorporated into the building as a record of it's history.
I do love coming here and finding wonderful things - I need to do it more often! *g*
