Abstract:		 The latest in a series of reports on the archaeological excavations near London Bridge Station, focussing on discoveries relating to the origins and development of Roman Southwark. From the prehistoric period on, this area formed the northernmost end of a series of sandy islands in the tidal reaches of the Thames. The earliest Roman features were drainage ditches and quarry pits associated with the construction of a road to the Thames bridgehead. Eight buildings were recorded along the eastern side of the road, including a blacksmiths' workshop. All of these buildings were destroyed by fire in the Boudiccan revolt of AD 60--61. New timber and masonry buildings were constructed in the area during the late first and second centuries. These included shops, a market hall, and a warehouse. Excavations revealed that extensive land reclamation took place on the marginal eastern fringes of the island before the construction of second- and third-century houses. One of these houses contained a mosaic, and painted wall plaster was recorded to the west of the road with part of a large building interpreted as a mansion. Includes specialist reports on building materials, Roman pottery, accessioned finds, glass, Roman coins, iron smithing, botanical remains, animal bones, eggshell, and archaeological conservation on the Jubilee Line Extension Project. Also includes French and German summaries.
