How did they rebuild London? (animation; learning resource for primary schools, Key Stage 1: Great Fire of London)
This video for primary schools shows how London was rebuilt after the Great Fire to reduce the dangers of another fire. It is part of a set of learning resources on the Great Fire of London for primary schools. The video is available in subtitled and BSL-interpreted versions. A transcript is also included.
The video was created by the Reimagining the Restoration project, in a collaboration between the University of Leicester and the Museum of London. It was published on the Museum of London's website in 2023.
The project's Principal Investigator, Kate Loveman carried out research for the video, and wrote the script with the project's Learning Manager at the Museum, James Harrod.
