Crossrail Archaeology: Liverpool Street dig reaches Roman levels

In this video Crossrail's lead archaeologist Jay Carver gives an overview of the intriguing finds unearthed so far, as the Liverpool Street excavation reaches the levels of Roman London.

Crossrail is undertaking a large-scale excavation at Liverpool Street. Archaeologists are working to unearth up to 3,000 skeletons from the Post-Medieval Bedlam burial ground and parts of the Roman suburbs.

There are 2,000 years of history buried beneath the site of Crossrail's Liverpool Street station, including the foundations of Broad Street railway station; the former Bedlam burial ground; Moorfields marsh; a Roman road and the Walbrook, one of London’s lost rivers.
