Seems like we are sliding back into those living conditions with cuts to social services, healthcare and the rising numbers of impoverished and homeless. Many of the common Victorian illnesses are making a comeback too.

Nice video, great editing, this could be broadcast in television

Love this channel, thank you 👍

R.I.P. Robert Hussey 1860.🥀🌻

Yeah!!!! 🎉 Lisson Grove?!? Isnt that where 'Eliza Doolittle' was from? 😂

I need longer videos! I love hearing the stories of the past and how people lived then

And we're coming full circle

I went to school in Marylebone, 1976_1981. Didn't live too far,Lisson Grove..

😊Nothing new under the sun. The photo at 4:19 reminds me of an impressionistic painting

Just like today’s social scene…but now there are more people sleeping in the streets…

I wonder if the Marylebone Mews houses were former news where the rich paid falconer’s assistants to keep their raptors ?

Always a great listen! And the images to go

Very well done!!! 💗👏👏👏

I live in Marylebone.

See them days was there no in between, you were either rich or poor? it seems like that to me, I like your booming voice, the way you narrate your stories, I'm glad these tenement buildings got pulled down, it was a cesspit for disease, among the populous, this is Paul in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England

I have heard of The Great Stink of London. 1850s.

Madonna used to have a place in Marleybone: there was a placard hanging outside, “Someone Famous USED To Live Here!!”

Thanks!

I taught in a school that opened in 1907, until the sixties they kept a daily log book, which were absolutely fascinating. They called the youngest children the babies class. Too often now we expect a lot from little people who haven't long since learned to walk and be potty trained. I don't work there now, but we always had cushions, beanbag s and blankets for the 3-5 year olds to have a nap if they wanted to. A tired child can't learn to the best of their ability, after a very long week who would consider building a complicated piece of flat pack furniture?
