The only Way โ๏ธ
โBut, enquired Christian, are there no turnings nor windings by which a pilgrim may lose his way?
Yes, replied Goodwill, there are many side paths that intersect with the narrow way, but theyโre crooked and wide, this is how you may distinguish the right from the wrong. Only the right path is straight and narrowโ
-The Pilgrims Progress
John Wesley wrote in his journal in 1777
โI began visiting those of our society who lived in Bethnal Green. Many of these I found in such poverty, as few can conceive without seeing itโ

Fenchurch Street Station, London EC3.
Opened in 1841, rebuilt in 1854. Until 1849 no steam locomotives were used, trains were dragged from Blackwall to Minories by cables, and had to reach Fenchurch Street by their own momentum. They left with a slight push from platform staff.
@LondonStone Apparently the only complete Georgian Square left in Bloomsbury.
I read that, until 1893 the whole place was sealed off by gates, and tradesmen were required to deliver goods in person.
A wiseman taketh not the bait, but rather sees through and avoids the evil trap.
Lest satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.
