Source: WikipediaI went to see my friends at their new house today. It’s in a wee village or rather a large group of houses. It’s amazing how quickly you are deep in the countryside when driving out of Edinburgh. In London, just getting out to nowhere simply isn’t possible, as there are always houses, neverending.
On that note, I saw The Other Boleyn Girl in the cinema on Friday. It was kinda shit (as expected), but my friend J. and I wanted to see it as we’ve both read the book.
The one interesting bit was when they were riding into London. It literally was a walled city and the countryside, i.e. green grass, went all the way to the city walls! Difficult to explain. I wonder where they filmed it [edit - apparently, it was filmed in Knole].
So, it looks like London too used to be a medieval city once, walled in, and not sprawling out like it does these days.
