The Great Plague😼

In the fourteenth century a terrible plague killed many thousands of people in England. The plague came and went many times in the next three hundred years. Then, in 1665, rats from ships carried the disease to London again. King Charles II and many rich people went to the country to escape the plague, but poor people didn´t leave the city. They stayed, and about 80,000 people died.

The Great Fire of London🚉

After the Great Plague, there was a very big fire in London. On September 2, 1666, a fire started at the bakery of Thomas Farriner in Pudding Lane. Farriner and his family escaped, but their servant died in the fire. The fire started in this poor part of the city and then burned the old City of London, including 13,500 houses, 87 churches and St. Paul´s Cathedral. The fire was terrible, but there were not many victims, and only six people died. Is this really true, or did more people die? It´s a mystery!
