Great Fire Of London
Blog
2nd September 1666
It was 2:00 am and I was awoke by
the shouting and screaming outside
on the street. I looked out of my
window and I saw smoke coming out
of Thomas Farynor's bakery in Pudding Lane.
At 7:00 am 300 houses were destroyed.At 8:00 am
people began to send their belongings into the northern
parts of the City to keep them safe.
The Great Fire of London spreaded all way to city
devastating many buildings including 13,200 house,
87 parish churches, The Royal Exchange
and Guildhall. St. Paul’s Cathedral, built during the middle
ages, was totally destroyed. The death toll was six people,
yet a great many others died through indirect causes.
