Free FreeWas the Great Fire of 1666 truly as destructive as everyone believes?
Was London's architecture, which was once described as a ‘Citie ... of Stickes’ by King James I, really transformed by the flames?
Or, were there other factors already at play that contributed to the changing look of London post the Great Fire?
Join archaeologist and architectural historian, John Schofield, in this lecture as he debunks the myths surrounding the Great Fire of 1666 and explores whether or not it had as much of an impact on this city as we are led to believe.
