Tip: if you're making a video about underground remains in London, try not to include the Roman Bath in Bath which is neither underground nor in London.
London doesn't have any sidewalks, just pavements!
London's original name is londinium not londonium 🇬🇧sorry just saying . Great video though
I just love how at 0:44 in the intro, and then again at 3:32, talking about all the Roman ruins found in London we get a beautiful shot of the Roman Baths in Bath UK. There is only a few hundred miles between them after all...
Last time I was in London I just couldn't find the subways or railroads. I found the underground & railways quite easily.
You're talking about London but you use the words sidewalks and freeways?
Something else under London are many of my old toys that I buried in the garden or just lost among the flower beds.They include several plastic soldiers and Lego bricks, Dinky cars and an action figure of Evel Knieval. Depth is about 6 inches.
I worked 5yrs on utilities in London and I can tell you things that I know no one else knows about ,one cellar I discovered whilst digging in a duct for the shard in London Bridge would blow your mind . Buried forever ,nothing slowed up that job .
So the Metro Railway was proposed in the 1930s, a test run was built at Kibblesworth in 1955, and then, two years later, in1861, it was filled up. Am I the only one seeing a problem with this?
Back in the 90s i was working in london renovateing an old shop cellar there was an iron gate and bars on a window and the gate was open in my lunch hour me and my work mate explored what was down there it was a massive brick lined tunnel and every old shop had 8 steps going down into the tunnel and it had a channel bout two feet wide on the right hand side as drainage me and my work mate walked 20 minuites and still never found the end of it we noticed every old shop that had a cellar had a door into the tunnel too .
there are so many weird date facts that do not add up. e.g. @29:37 you say in 1953 cholera killed 15000 people but then @29:45 you say the problem wasn't delt with until 1858... there are several such inconsistencies. please review thoroughly before posting or you risk losing viewers due to easily fixed errors.
It's weird how buildings built on the surface gradually end up under ground. Not just a little, but far under.
I'm from NY, I was in the London this past April, I read about the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, so I walked both directions, it was truly amazing, since it was built in 1902!
Londinium is the historical name for London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom. Founded by the Romans around AD 43 during their conquest of Britain, it was strategically located on the north bank of the River Thames. Londinium quickly grew into a significant commercial and administrative center, becoming one of the largest cities in Roman Britain by the early 2nd century with a population of around 30,000 to 60,000. The Romans built numerous structures, including a bridge over the Thames, a defensive wall (the London Wall), a basilica, an amphitheater, and public baths, contributing to its well-planned streets and public buildings. However, Londinium began to decline in the 3rd century due to economic difficulties and increasing barbarian invasions, and by the early 5th century, the Roman administration had withdrawn from Britain, leaving Londinium largely abandoned. The modern city of London retains deep roots in its Roman past, with many streets following the original Roman layout and archaeological sites revealing its ancient heritage. The remnants of the London Wall are a significant reminder of the city's Roman origins, highlighting Londinium's crucial role in the Romanization of Britain and its legacy in the development of modern London.
London and its history is a must visit. The stations were so deep and well built that my mother was one of the children who sheltered there during the blitz.
I've been studying the history of London from across the pond for nearly 70 years. (my life span). I am always fascinated by what they find!!! The Romans were amazing!!!
Rivers full of sewage and politicians who only address a problem when it begins to affect them personally. It all sounds very familiar 😕
I may be wrong, but isn't the "ancient Roman ruins" at 0:45 actually Bath?
London. Built 3780 years ago. Time to wake up...😢
Department stores in the 1960s still used that form of pneumatic capsule travel. So your bill would come down from the department you'd shopped in to the main desk downstairs
