Melvadius Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 The Guardian is carrying this report of the discovery of a bath house close to the Roman bridge crossing the Thames at Southwark. The remains of a major Roman bath house have been found near the Thames in Southwark on land being cleared by Network Rail for the Thameslink project. Archaeologists are still working on the site, but it appears to be a complex including a cold plunge bath and rooms heated by underfloor hypocausts, and is one of the most significant finds on the South Bank in recent years. The site is on the corner of Borough High Street and London Bridge Street Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
