Enjoy all your videos, but this one particularly, since Fetter Lane was the home of my 18th C. ancestors too. Can you tell me the source of your Fetter Lane engraving? Thanks.

I actually found it in a blog written by my dear, late friend and colleague, Audrey Collins: thefamilyrecorder.blogspot.com/2011/01/shopping-saturday-old-houses-in-fetter.html
