[edit] Truth or Fiction?

Concerning this part of the article:

Belonging to one of the oldest parts of London, archeological evidence shows that there was a settlement on the hill in the Bronze Age and much later a Roman village that was burnt down during the Boadicea uprising.

It's a nice story, but is it true? Was Boudicca such a pyromaniac that she couldn't leave any place alone without burning it down? Colin4C 19:33, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Boadicea definitely burnt an early London to the ground... Paulbrock 08:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
