Mary kings close
Today we visited Mary kings close we learned about what life was like in the 18th and 19th century the living condition and how where the lower class lived the was no sun light they had to if they had some money burn bees wax if the were skint the burned animal fat of fish oil. There was around 12 people living in these small rooms along with the smell of burning fish and body Oder there was also a bucket where people pood and peed and they could only empty their bucket 2 times s day once at 7am and the other at 10pm and they way the emptied there bucket was tossing it onto the street and shouting gardilo. The tour was informative but it was a bit over priced it was round about £13 but it was ok.
