Framed Print of The Great Storm of Wind on Friday week: top of a house blown down in Burlington-street... 1881. Creator: Unknown
The Great Storm of Wind on Friday week: top of a house blown down in Burlington-street, Bond-street, 1881. The south of England, and especially the country a hundred miles round London, with the metropolitan district itself, seem to have felt its extreme violence; and a vast amount of damage has been done to buildings and plantations, while many persons, in different parts of the country, and a few in London, lost their lives from various injuries...The gale subsided on the Friday afternoon; but its effects were not fully known till Monday, as many lines of telegraph had been interrupted. We present Sketches of a few incidents of the havoc it caused in and near London and up the valley of the Thames...It seems, indeed, to have been a revolving storm, or cyclone, of vast circumference, having a diameter of not less than two hundred miles, covering nearly the whole of England, and connected with more extensive atmospheric disturbances beyond...The top storey of a house at the upper end of Old Burlington-street, Regent-street, the Burlington Arms, was completely blown off, falling into the street below, and smashing a four-wheeled cab that was standing at the door. The cabman had fortunately left the cab, and no person was hurt'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
