History
After the Great Fire of London in 1666 rebuilding was forbidden until a Committee had considered redevelopment plans and all claims to plots of land had been settled. By November the Committee gave the City powers to control drainage, water supply, and street cleaning; and issued orders regulating the height of private houses.
