Hi everyone, hope you are all well.
I have a couple of very specific query about lighting in London between 1620-50 (I´m trying to write about that period).
I´ve looked around and it seems that street lights were not put in place until after 1670, but I´m not 100% sure so that´s point one.
The second is if people used oil lamps to move around at night or candle?
Any help or advice would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Take care,
Newmod
p.s. I hope that I´ve put this in the right forum. If not apologies in advance to the mods
