| - The visible remains of an amphitheatre constructed during Roman London lie beneath Guildhall Yard in the City of London. Some of these remains are displayed in situ in a room in the basement of the Guildhall Art Gallery complex. Discovered in 1988, the site is now a scheduled monument. London's first Roman amphitheatre was built in AD 70 from wood, but was renovated in the early 2nd century with tiled entrances and rag-stone walls. The amphitheatre was used for various public events such as gladiator games, entertaining soldiers and the public with animal fighting and public execution of criminals, as well as religious activities. After the ancient Romans left in the 4th century, the amphitheatre lay derelict for hundreds of years. In the 11th century the area was reoccupied and by the 12th century the first London Guildhall was built next to it, which survives despite the Great Fire of London and The Blitz. Various other buildings were constructed around the site of the amphitheatre, which eventually became the public plaza of Guildhall Yard seen today. The formal entrance to Guildhall Yard included a gatehouse built in the 13th century, sited directly directly over the southern entrance to the Roman amphitheatre. The church of St Lawrence Jewry, on the south side of Guildhall Yard, is built on an irregular alignment which may have been intended to shadow the elliptical form of the amphitheatre. The Guildhall Art Gallery, on the northern side of the plaza, was completed in 1999, the basement of which provides access to an excavated section of the Roman-era remains. The perimeter of the amphitheatre is marked at surface level on Guildhall Yard by a band of dark stone. (en)

Algunos de estos restos se exhiben in situ en una habitación en el sótano del complejo de la Galería de Arte Guildhall. Descubierto en 1988, el sitio es ahora un monumento programado . El primer anfiteatro romano de Londres se construyó en el año 70 d. C. con madera, pero se renovó a principios del siglo II con entradas de azulejos y paredes de piedra irregular. El anfiteatro se utilizó para varios eventos públicos, como juegos de gladiadores, entretener a los soldados y al público con peleas de animales y ejecución pública de criminales, así como actividades religiosas. Después de que los antiguos romanos se fueran en el siglo IV, el anfiteatro permaneció abandonado durante cientos de años. En el siglo XI se volvió a ocupar la zona y en el siglo XII se construyó junto a ella el primer London Guildhall, que sobrevive a pesar del Gran Incendio de Londres y de los bombardeos nazi. Se construyeron varios otros edificios alrededor del sitio del anfiteatro, que eventualmente se convirtió en la plaza pública de Guildhall Yard que se ve hoy. La entrada formal a Guildhall Yard incluía una puerta de entrada construida en el siglo XIII, ubicada directamente sobre la entrada sur del anfiteatro romano. La iglesia de St Lawrence Jewry, en el lado sur de Guildhall Yard, está construida sobre una alineación irregular que puede haber tenido la intención de ensombrecer la forma elíptica del anfiteatro. La Galería de Arte Guildhall, en el lado norte de la plaza, se completó en 1999, cuyo sótano brinda acceso a una sección excavada de los restos de la época romana. El perímetro del anfiteatro está marcado al nivel de la superficie en Guildhall Yard por una banda de piedra oscura. (es)
