London was filthy and because of the germs the plague begun killing thousands. The fire was actually useful in this way, it killed the germs and all the rats that carried it.

Why was it so difficult to put the great fire of London out?

5_Main_reasons:it was September when the fire started and there had been a drought due to the very hot summerMost houses were made from wood that was very dry - like tinder that is amazingly flammableThe houses were close together so the fire spread quickly through each oneThere was no fire brigadeThe wind was blowing towards the most densely populated part of London so the fire wiped out that part quicklyHouses did not have running water. Water came from pumps in the streets. The water pump near where the fire started was out of order.13,200 houses were destroyed in the Great Fire of London between 2-5 Sep. 1666.


How is the fire of London compared to other fires like the Blitz?

May I point out that the BLITZ was not a fire but the result of being continuously bombed by the Germans during WW2.....so you cannot compare. The Great Fire of London completely destroyed nearly all of London, but in retrospect if was a good thing, for it got rid of all the slums, and allowed a rebuild that would be better. (New Respondent) There is a theory that the Fire of London was started deliberately. The young Christopher Wren had just come back from Rome, where he was impressed with St. Peter's, and told the city fathers that London ought to have something like it. They told him that there wasn't a budget. But some of them still thought it should happen, and supposedly started the fire for that purpose. It didn't spread very fast, and the Lord Mayor said he shouldn't have been roused from his bed for such a small fire. So they re-started it, and this time it did spread.
