Not really Anna's cup of tea, but she was kind enough to let me drag her off to the Museum of London for a few hours.
Located just up the road from us, and part of the striking Barbican complex, the museum documents the history of our adopted city from the prehistoric to the present, with detailed stop-overs illustrating the Roman occupation, and the Great Fire of London, among others.
It even overlooks the remains of the original Roman city wall, and contains artefacts from the Temple of Mithras that we have walked past late at night many times, such as the altarpiece above. A great place to visit!
