Birds eye view of the foundations of the Rose, as dug up in 1989. The photograph includes the surviving concrete posts from the foundations of the 1957 building over the remains and just demolished, and shows spectators looking at the excavation from Park Street in Southwark. The remains are of two theatres and two stages. The first was made in 1587 and was a roughly symetrical polgon. The second was an anlargement made in 1592 which stretched the original polygon northwards into a tulip-shape.
