Betsy has just finished reading the first part of the book about London. It is about its history. Betsy has read some very interesting things about London Bridge. Here are some facts from London's history.

THE ROMANS1

The Romans went to England many years ago. They built a town on the River Thames [temz]. The name of the town was Londinium [lʌn'dɪnɪəm]. The Romans built Londinium near the river. The place for the town was very good. Soon the Romans built a bridge over the River Thames.

By the year 400, there were fifty thousand people in Londinium. Soon, after 400, the Romans left Britain.

The River Thames has always been part of London's history. In Roman times Londinium was a small town with the Thames in its centre ['sentə]. Now London is a very large city ['sɪtɪ], but the River Thames is still in the centre of London.

Until 1749, there was only one bridge over the river — London Bridge. The old London Bridge looked very strange. There were houses and shops on the bridge. In the nineteenth century2 there were already a lot of new bridges in London. Now there are more than twenty bridges over the Thames.
