The City Wall at Vine Street Museum, London

This is London's newest Museum, and is free entry-

A rarely seen before part of London's roman wall and it's full history, in context, up to modern times.

Thanks for pointing this out! I've always been intrigued by the remnants of the Roman wall in London, but last time I was there (2015) I more or less dragged my husband to go see it and it was, shall we say, fairly anticlimactic. How wonderful that a museum (free, no less) shows more of the wall and puts it in context!

It was still anticlimactic in 2021. We did the Roman Wall walk that follows the little remaining wall and the wall’s footprint, starting by the Tower Hill tube stop, and were less than impressed.
