Thank you for sharing these GA and thank goodness for people like Ernest George and John Stow for preserving these images for future generations to see.

Thank you, GA. I hope prints are available from the Bishopsgate institute. What a draw for tourists these ancient streets would be if they had not been demolished in the name of progress!

It certainly helps to visualise them in the nineteenth century. These etchings are exquisitely detailed. Thanks GA
