Yesterday I came across what I think has to be, for those of us who enjoy 18th and 19th Century English history, one of the premier blogs on the subject. I could, of course, rave on and on about it, but suggest that you have a look for yourselves. The keeper of the blog (blog mistress?) is Lucy Inglis and the blog is all about Georgian London. It is gossipy, well-written and historically accurate. Georgian London was voted 'History Website of 2009' by the online readers of History Today Magazine, and also won the 2009 Cliopatria Award for 'Best Individual Blog' and 'Best New Blog'. I have to say I am in awe both of the website and of Lucy. You can find this remarkable blog at: http://www.georgianlondon.com
