Roman City Wall (Barbican)
Trace your fingers along ragstone blocks laid by Roman soldiers around AD 200 at this 6-metre-high stretch by the Barbican, where tile bands act as ancient “spirit levels” in the masonry. Later crenellated brickwork added under Edward IV turns this defensive engineering into a piece of political theatre from the Wars of the Roses.
