The Museum of London is internationally renowned for its archaeological work. We operate both a commercial archaeological service - Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) - and an archaeological archive and research centre.
Handle the objects and explore the issues. Visit us on the third Friday (lunchtime) each month to chew over finds of major archaeological importance with experts from the LAARC.
Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) has carried out an evaluation in advance of a major development scheme for Oxford University.
Over 200 new archives were deposited at the LAARC in 2009.
These included the archive for the Princes Channel Wreck (PCO03), and the archive for an excavation at the site of the London Transport Museum (LTM03) which revealed significant Saxon remains, in addition to Post-Medieval remains.
A ground-breaking new MOLA book tells all about the Rose and the Globe, two famous playhouses of Shakespeare’s Bankside.
The MOLA historic buildings team interprets and records historic buildings, landscapes and gardens - from palaces to pylons.
One of their recent projects involved recording the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon, pictured above.
The Museum of London is a partner in the Thames Discovery Programme (TDP), a three-year project involving archaeological survey of the Thames foreshore.
