Pre Great Fire buildings in London???

The Lamb and Flag, 33 Rose Street. Leicester Square tube. One of the few
wooden structures to survive the Great Fire of 1666.
The Fire didn't go that far west, though. It stopped around Fetter Lane, I
think. The paucity of earlier structures in what is now the West End is
largely the result of its development history.
Incidentally, I forgot to mention in my other post in this thread that
there was also a big fire south of the river shortly (ie a few years)
after the Great Fire.
