Note 77 — I CLERKENWELL AND CENTRAL GROUP

Reading edition

There may be some exaggeration in this description (based on Wilkinson), for in the Picture of London, 1802, p. 370, the Adam and Eve is enumerated among the tea-gardens frequented by the middle classes, and is described as somewhat similar to the Jew’s Harp, with a small organ in the room upstairs where tea, wine and punch are served.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
