The official record says six people died. Six. In a fire that burned for four days, consumed thirteen thousand two hundred houses, eighty-seven parish churches and the cathedral at the centre of the city, and left seventy thousand Londoners with nowhere to sleep. Almost nobody believes that number. This is the Great Fire of London as it actually happened, hour by hour across four days in September 1666 — starting on the Saturday when nothing at all was wrong, in a city of eighty thousand people built almost entirely out of timber, coated in pitch, leaning out over streets four yards wide, on the ninth month of a drought. It began in a bakery in Pudding Lane at one in the morning on Sunday. The Lord Mayor was woken, looked at it, said a woman might piss it out, and went back to bed. By morning it had eaten three hundred houses and reached the wharves on Thames Street, where the coal and the pitch and the tar and the brandy of a world economy were stacked in wooden buildings a few yards from the water. On Tuesday night it reached St Paul's. The booksellers had carried their entire stock into the crypt, on the reasonable theory that the safest place in a burning city is beneath several thousand tons of masonry. The lead came off the roof in a stream bright enough to read by, the vault cracked, and the stock went up. The glow was visible forty miles away, and burnt paper from the records of London fell in the streets of Oxford. What stopped it was the weather, gunpowder, and sailors who knew how to use it. And what came afterward is the part worth staying for: a hundred thousand people camped in the fields, a French watchmaker hanged for a fire he could not have started, three brilliant plans for a new London all defeated by the same thing, and a Rebuilding Act that made brick compulsory and the projecting storey illegal — the reason London looks the way it does today.
