The Cotton Library moves to Essex House (1 Jan 1702 Jahr – 1 Jan 1730 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

After its transfer to the government in 1706, the Cotton Library was moved to Essex House, on the Strand, London. However, Essex House was deemed a fire hazard, and so was demolished to make way for the new Essex Street. The Cotton Library, and Beowulf along with it, was then moved to Ashburnham House.
