Great Fire of London (2 sept 1666 año – 6 sept 1666 año)

Descripción:

Likely began at Thomas Farrier's bakery at Pudding Lane
Spread quickly due to improper fire service, thatch and closely packed houses and strong winds, warehouses storing oil and gunpowder
13,000 homes destroyed and 87 churches
James would take command over the Mayor of London and organise the creation of a fire break

Increased anti-catholic sentiment with a French Watchmaker hung after falsely confessing

Plans for the redesign of London created by Christopher Wren & John Evelyn, similar to Paris, but not carried out due to Land ownership disputes, need to quickly start business
New church such as St pauls were rebuilt, and thatch and jetting were banned
