There were also artefacts found on the Park being shown by members of the Musuem of London team.
The ODA's commitment to preserving the history of this area quickly became apparent. A great amount of time has been dedicated to exploring this area in order to conserve its heritage. As I originally come from Colchester, I found the discussion about the route of the Roman Road of particular interest. I now live just off the modern version of the Roman Road, as a Tower Hamlets resident.
The evening closed with an intriguing question and answer session with a number of members of the audience demonstrating a personal and intimate knowledge of the area’s history.
All in all an enlightening archaeological evening, without a single mention of Indiana Jones.
