M@ Londonâs Most Inconvenient Plaque Marks A Forgotten Roman Site
For many of us, a trip to the very northern extreme of the Jubilee line would be adventure enough. How often do you take a ride out to Stanmore for the fun of it? But add to that a walk of over a mile up one of north Londonâs tallest hills, and then a scramble through a patch of overgrown brambles and you might find this:
Itâs what I like to think of as Londonâs most inconvenient plaque, and probably one of the least visited. It marks the lost Roman pottery (and possibly settlement) of Sulloniacis. Actually, it s not even a proper plaque - more a disc of paint on wooden board, styled to look like an English Heritage Blue Plaque. Humble and remote the memorial may be, but it does mark one of Roman London s most important outposts.

Today, though, while vestiges of some remain visible, most lie buried beneath pavements and submerged in the sewage system.
