To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A mausoleum with a Latin cross in stone on the top was built over the remains, which were collected together. The Metropolitan Railway and Farringdon Road run over the site of the burial-ground. Crawford Passage was once called Pickled Egg Walk, from the association of the owner of the principal tavern with these delicacies. It is said 67 F 2 CLERKENWELL THE FASCINATION that King Charles in passing once stopped and partook of a pickled egg. The presence of the King in this locality is not so ab...surd as may be supposed, for until Farringdon Road was made this was the most direct route from the City to Clerkenwell. This walk shai'ed in the character of the neighbouring streets, and had in the eighteenth century its own exhibitions of cock- fighting. Coppice Row is now absorbed in Farringdon Road. The portion of it which can be traced on the east side of a block of buildings in the road is lined by great business premises. The rest is quite swallowed up and obliterated. In the seventeenth century it was called Town's End Lane and also Codpiece Row.
