<hr />
<div>'''The Rose''' was an [[Elizabethan era|Elizabethan]] [[theatre]]. It was the first of several playhouses to be situated in Bankside, [[Southwark]], in a "liberty" outside the jurisdiction of [[London]]'s civic authorities.<br />
<br />
The Rose was built in [[1587]] by [[Philip Henslowe]] and John Cholmley. It was enlarged a few years later. It was polygonal in shape, about 21 [[metre]]s in diameter and may have held well over 2000 people.<br />
<br />
The Rose was home to the [[Admiral's Men]] for several years. Henslowe had interests in other theatres, including the Fortune (built in [[1600]]), and when the lease ran out on The Rose in [[1605]] it was abandoned.<br />
<br />
In [[1989]], the remains of the Rose were threatened with destruction by building development. A campaign to save the site was launched by several well-known theatrical figures, including [[Peggy Ashcroft]] and [[Laurence Olivier]], aIts remains were uncovered during development work in 1989. Threatened with destruction, it was eventually decided to build over the top of the theatre's remains, leaving them conserved beneath.<br />
<br />
The handling of the Rose Theatre by government, archaeologists and the developer provided impetus for the legitimisation or archaeology in the development process and led the Conservative government of [[Margaret Thatcher]] to introduce [[PPG 16]] in an attempt to manage archaeology in the face of development threat.<br />
<br />
In 1999 the site was re-opened to the public, underneath the controversial development. Work continues to excavate the site further and to secure its future.<br />
