More about this scene
In 1838 there was a grat conflagration which began in the rooms of Lloyd's coffee-house. Thousands of tons of masonry fell and the old Royal Exhange was destroyed. The new Exchange was designed by William Tite and built at a furous pace. Within three years it was open for business. Chantrey's equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington was erected in the broad space created.
