Best Answer

This is a really difficult question to answer because no-one really knows who first settled in the area, or exactly when. The White Tower, which is in the middle of the Tower of London, dates from 1078 so is one of the oldest buildings in London. The oldest structure is probably London Wall, which dates from the Roman times, and parts of it are still standing, notably adjacent to the Tower of London.

London has had an inhabited settlement since before Roman times nearly 2000 years ago. The name London came from its Roman name - Londinium.
