		Philip Henslowe, by trade a dyer, and an acute man of business interested in undertakings of various kinds, leased an estate in the Clink liberty, Southwark, in 1585, and, in 1587, was contemplating the building upon it of a playhouse, of which, if it was built at all, we hear nothing till some years later.
		In his diary or book of accounts, which is one of the chief authorities for the dramatic history of the period, he is found in February, 1592, sharing the receipts of lord Strange’s men—nothing being said of the playhouse at which they were acting.
		The Rose was built mainly of timber, lath and plaster, though entries in Henslowe’s accounts for bricks and bricklaying seem to imply a brick foundation for the wooden walls.

		Philip Henslowe, a famous theatre manager of the time, left a diary from which we have learnt much about the organisation of theatre companies; the props they used; the plays performed and the playwrights who wrote for them; in addition to the construction of the theatre itself.
		For example we know from Henslowe's diary that The Rose was built with a timber frame sat on brick foundations.
		These remains revealed two phases of the theatre's construction, the original building in 1587 and a second phase of reconstruction which is also suggested in Philip Henslowe's diary when he speaks of "such charges as I have layd owt abowte my play howsse".
