Hairdressing and Ancient Monuments

[firstlight]

In our continuing adventures in the City of London, we went to the Leadenhall Market today, which is located over (a small part of) the Roman forum and basilica.

Well, we went a lot of other places, too. But the highlight was a hairdressers in the market which had, on the back wall of the shop (above the stairs leading down to the lower level), a sign saying:

"Ten Hairdressing Positions & Shoe Shine
Plus Ancient Monument Downstairs"

So we went downstairs.

And there was, in fact, a bit of the basilica.

In a hairdressers. Just sort of sitting there in the corner behind a window.

XD

Doesn't quite rival the bit of the London Wall in a car park, but hey.

Right. Off to my next class. *still defrosting from walking around without gloves*
