Facts about Bexley
Fun Facts About London
1. The City of London is ancient – and tiny
The old core of the British capital covers an area of only 1.12 square miles. It’s known locally as the Square Mile. This was London as it was settled by the Romans in the 1st century AD, and as it continued into the Middle Ages. The City of London is now just an eensy, teensy part of the metropolis – and constitutes the smallest county in England.
2. More than 300 languages are spoken in the London area
This is one of those crazy facts about London! Thanks to a rich history of immigration, London is home to a diverse range of people and cultures. From Kurdish to Korean, the lingo in London is hugely varied.
3. London is the center of the world
Well, sort of. And specifically, that’s Greenwich. This historic area is where you’ll find the Royal Observatory. This defines 0° longitude (i.e., the Prime Meridian) and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). That’s what you probably know as Coordinated Universal Time or UTC, but GMT predates this term by over 300 years.
4. The London Underground is the oldest underground railway network in the world
It may be rough-around-the-edges, lack air-con and cell phone signal, but the London Underground is a pioneer of traveling by train under the ground. In January 1863, a line between Paddington and Farringdon was opened. The carriages were wooden, gas-lit, and pulled by steam locomotives. It caught on.
5. The name “London” is ancient
You know already that London was primarily developed by the Romans. That was our first fact about London. But while they called the city “Londinium,” you have to wonder where they got that word from? Historians have reconstructed its old Celtic name (which the Romans adapted) as something like Londonjon.
6. London wasn’t a healthy place in the 17th century
There were a lot of diseases going around London at the time – and we’re talking worse than flu. Between 1665 and 1666, the Great Plague – a nasty case of bubonic plague – killed around 100,000 people. At the time, that was almost a quarter of London’s population.
7. The Great Fire of London started in a bakery
… on Pudding Lane, no less. It happened in 1666. Shortly after midnight on Sunday, September 2nd, the fire erupted from the bakery and quickly spread, destroying around a quarter of London’s metropolis. This included St Paul’s Cathedral. The natural outcome was to give the city a brick-and-stone facelift.
