Q1.
London was a good place to live in the fourteenth century, and all Londoners were very proud of it. It had a 
population of about forty thousand and that made it as large as the next four towns in England combined. 
Its political prestige was enormous, and whatever king occupied the throne in nearby Westminster, the 
opinions of Londoners had to be considered. 
Q2.
In so busy a city, the problem of adequate water supply and sewage disposal and city cleaning were 
necessarily complicated. Each of the twenty-five areas of the city had at least one full-time street cleaner. 
Untidy trades like that of the butchers were kept as far away as possible from the centre. Each citizen had 
to have the road paved in front of his house. 
Q3.
The city was democratically and intelligently run, and mostly by men who received no pay for their 
services. The mayor received a large grant for entertainment purposes, and the town-scrgeant and town-
clerk were given salaries because theirs were full-time posts, but aldermen and members of the common 
council worked for nothing. They watched over the welfare of the city because they were its citizens. 
Q4.
The houses were somewhat dark, especially when the wooden shutters had to be closed, as glass was 
expensive and of poor quality. Most of the houses in London were built tightly packed together, with each 
storey extending further towards the street than the last one and sometimes the top floors of buildings on 
opposite sides of the street were so big that they actually met in the middle.
