British Professor Pinpoints Shakespeare's London Home Location
Professor Lucy Munro from King's College London has uncovered the precise location of William Shakespeare's only known London property using previously unknown documents from the London and National Archives. The discovery was made through a city plan from 1668, which detailed the Blackfriars precinct where Shakespeare's home was located. This finding challenges previous assumptions about Shakespeare's later years, suggesting he may have spent more time in London than previously thought. The property, once believed to be merely an investment, is now understood to have been significant to Shakespeare's life and work.
