Per the Department for Culture, Media, and Sport with Historic England, the 2,000-year-old riverside walls are now included on the National Heritage List for England, joining the only other uncovered portion of the riverside wall, which is currently at the Tower of London.
The three stretches of the wall have all been preserved underground, below modern buildings.
“Even in a really dense city like London, built up over 2,000 years, there are still mysteries to be revealed right beneath our feet,” said Duncan Wilson, the chief executive of Historic England.
He added, “The riverside wall remains an intriguing element of Roman London, which raises almost as many questions as it answers.”
