London - Other Sites
|
| Like the Shelley residences, other sites
of interest in London have for the most part
fallen victim to urban renewal. Skinner
Street still exists, although the Godwin
address at number 4 has disappeared. One can
guess at the general location, however, and
enough period buildings remain in the
vicinity to give a sense of the architecture
of the place. |
|
|
| The Serpentine, where Shelley's first
wife, the unhappy Harriet Shelley, drowned
herself, is still a public park. |
|
|
| Her body was thought to have washed
downstream to the lower reaches. |
|
|
| The site of Saint Mildred’s Church,
where Mary and Shelley wed shortly after
Harriet’s death, is now occupied by an
office building. |
