It seems to have become the accepted wisdom that late Roman London was in serious decline, with large empty areas, but careful consideration of the evidence suggests that this is a false picture. James Gerrard will share his thoughts on the topic, sparked in part by his study of the finds from the Drapers Gardens site, about which he gave a fascinating talk to the Group last year. Understanding London in this period is of course crucial to any consideration of what was going on in the Surrey area in the late and sub-Roman period.
