LONDON HISTORY...ahem, WEEK!🪓


The bubonic plague, spread by fleas biting humans and rats, claimed 29,000 to 40,000 lives during the 1603 London outbreak. Poor living conditions and a large rat population fueled its rapid spread.
As the summer intensified, daily life felt the plague's grip: Trinity law sessions halted, St. Paul's Cathedral emptied, and the royal family sought refuge in Hampshire for safety.
Theatre closures, including those of playwrights like Shakespeare, aimed to stem the disease's tide. Despite continued outbreaks, societal awareness grew regarding the plague's link to poor hygiene.
