1666 THE BAKERS GIN
The great fire of London started on a windy Sunday night in acity ravaged by the plague, on September 2nd 1666. Allegedly in the Royal Bakers of Thomas Farriner an oven is left burning and a small fire breaks out, which spreads quickly reaching outside. Soon helped by the wind, the whole building is engulfed. Embers from the fire are blown onto other buildings and Pudding Lane is ablaze.
