Will I get fired if I don't know this one ? I have a burning desire not to have Karrow boot me for not knowing. The last time I didn't know something, she almost beat me with a rubber hose.

Well done TIE!
You got the event and location spot on!
For the record here's how many properties were destroyed
quote:
13,200 Houses
87 Churches
6 Chapels
The Royal Exchange
The Custom House
Jail at Newgate
Three City gates
The Guildhall and
Four bridges

Almost all of the east end of London was destroyed, but not the Tower of London which I think was situated isolated in those days outside the built-up area where the fire started, but within a stones throw of it !
