What reading level is Memorials of Old London volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is said, however, that after a time the stones were used for mending roads.
A rather unimportant-looking inn was the " Nag's Head, " on the east side of Whitcomb Streety formerly Hedge Lane, but it is worthy of mention for one or two reasons. We learn from a manuscript note-book, which was in the possession of the late Mr. F. Locker Lampson, that Hogarth in his later days, when he set up a coach and horses, kept them at the " Nag's Head. " He was The Inns of Old London 133 then living- on th...e east side of Leicester Square. Accord- ing to a pencil note on an old drawing, which belongs to the writer, " this inn did the posting exclusively for the Royal family from George I. To William IV. " It was latterly used as a livery stable, but retained its picturesque galleries until, the lease having come to an end, it was closed in 1890. The space remained vacant for some years, and is now covered by the fine publishing office of Messrs. Macmillan & Co.
Two " Saracen's Head " inns have already been described, and though one feels how imperfect this account must of necessity be, and that some houses of note are altogether omitted, I am tempted to mention a third — the house with that sign in Friday Street.
