A HISTORY OF LONDON logical Rev. v (1867), p. Ixxi fF, with plan and sections ; Arch. Journ. xxiv, 61 ; Munro, Lah- Dwdlings of Europe, 494 ; see also Proc. Soc. Jntiq. (Ser. 2), iii, 413 ; Journ. Brit. Arch. Assoc. xxi (1866), 94, xxiii, 91]. In 1867-9 two Roman sandals, a 'hippo-sandal' {see p. 89), and a clay figure of Venus were reported [Journ. Brit. Arch. Assoc, xxiv, 289, xxv, 273 ; Land, and Midd. Arch. Soc. Trans, iii, 518]. A hoard of Roman coins was found at the corner of Throgmorton Avenue (Carpenters' Hall) in 1872, extending from Augustus to Constantine II [Num. Chron. (Ser. 4), iii, 102]. About 1876 a coin of Severus with hippopotamus on reverse and a terra-cotta tessera inscribed v, were reported [Journ. Brit. Arch. Assoc, xxxii, 126; xxxiii, 67]. In 1880 a supposed Roman road was unearthed at the top of Throgmorton Avenue (Plan C, 164), crossing it diagonally (presumably inside the Wall), together with various remains : a bronze statuette and unknown implement, fragments of various sorts of pottery, glass, sandals, keys, nails, spindle- wheels, bones of animals, and shells [Arch. Journ. xxxvii, 331]. Pottery was also reported in 1880 and 1 884 [Journ. Brit. Arch. Assoc, xxxvi, 356 ; xl, 1 1 1] ; two silver coins of Constantine II contained in an earthenware vase in 1885 on the site of Sion College [Antiq. xi, 176] ; and coins ofVespasian, Trajan, Antoninus Pius, and Postumus in 1901 [ibid, xxxvii, 357 ; Daily Graphic, 26 Oct. 1901]. During excavations made by Mr. F. W. Reader in 1901-5 (Plan C, 103), pottery, glass, a fish-shaped enamelled fibula [See Reliquary, 1902, 274, and of. Pitt-Rivers, Cranborne Chase, ii, 118, pi. 97, 8, and Brit. Mus. Cat. of Bronzes, 2155-56], a leaden seal, 350 nails, bone implements, and other objects were obtained. The potters' stamps include the following : albvci m, cacasi m, cirrvs f, comprinni m, pecvliar f, rvffi m (all second century) [Arch. Journ. Ix, 197, 223 ; see below]. In the British Museum are a bowl of Lezoux ware (form 37) with designs in medallions, and numerous fragments with potters' stamps : Albinus, Aquitanus, Balbus, Felix, Ingenuus, Masclus, Mommo, Passenus, Salvius (Rutenian) ; Beliniccus, Caratedo, Cocuro, Divicatus, Gaius, Peculiaris, Primanus, Senila (Lezoux) ; Domitianus and Reginus (German) ; also a fragment of Castor ware, a bronze brooch and punch (1880), and bronze key (found 1 8 19). In Mr. Ransom's collection at Hitchin, a Gaulish bowl of form i8 with stamp ingenvi, a large olla of black ware with lattice patterns, a flat dish of black ware, perhaps of early first-century (' Belgic ') type, a mould for a lamp with design of a rosette, and various clay lamps. In the Guildhall Museum is a very large number of objects from this site, impossible to describe in detail. They include implements of all kinds in bone, bronze, and iron, such as hairpins, netting-needles, and knives, leather shoes, tools, and instruments, hippo-sandals, clay lamps, locks and keys, and pottery ; also a bronze figure of Apollo and part of a statue, and two figures of Venus in terra-cotta. Among the pottery are : a good Lezoux bowl of form 37, with scrolls inclosing vine-leaves, a relief of a seated woman for attachment to a vase of the Cornhill type (p. 99), a fragment of early first-century red ' Belgic ' ware with the stamp avliv, and a ' flower '-vase with frilled ornament. Some interesting objects found in the bed of the Walbrook here (Plan C, 103) are in the possession of Mr. W. M. Newton of Dartford. They include a Roman bronze pen with split nib (Fig. 51 ; similar ones in British Museum), a bronze stand inlaid with niello and enamel (like one in British Museum from Farley Heath), a second-century cnzxatWeA fibula, iron keys, rings of glass and jet, a bronze bodkin 205- in. long, twelve hippo-sandals, a coin of Trajan, and some good fragments of Gaulish pottery, one with the stamp crvcvro, another with that of Patcrnus [see Arch. Journ. Ix, 229, and p. 89 for the hippo-sandals (under Bishopsgate)]. In 1817 part of the Roman Wall here was visible [Gent.Mag.{i2>i']), i, 196], and in 1882, in pulling down No. 55, close toFinsbury Place, a solid mass was uncovered [Journ. Brit. Arch. Assoc, xxxviii, 424]. A fragment is still preserved in St. Alphage's Churchyard, nearly opposite the church (Plan C, 35). The investigations carried out by Mr. F. W. Reader in 1901-5 (Plan C, 31) confirmed the supposition that the aqueduct and sewer found in 1837 [see above) were intended to carry the Walbrook through the Wall. It was also shown by Mr. Reader that the top of the Wall nearly reached the street-level opposite Carpenters' Hall, and that it rested on a sandstone plinth I2|^ ft. below [Arch. Journ. Ix, 137 fF, 179 fF; Proc. Soc. Antiq. xxi, 231 ; Arch. Ix, l69£F], Mr. Reader also notes that none of the coins from the bed of the Walbrook are later than the time of Marcus Aurelius. For further discoveries at Allhallows Church see Broad Street (New) ; and on the Wall here in general see above, p. 59 ff and Wheatley and Cunningham, London Past and Present, ii, 435.

LoTHBURY. — About 1834 remains of^ a tessellated pavement were found opposite Founder's Court (Plan C, 109), at a depth of about 11 ft., also various iron tools ; and at a lower level, a leather sandal, black and red pottery, coins of Domitian and Antoninus Pius, and wooden 112
