Well, it took long time and then it was done
There was a huge amount of bigotry at the time with the country changing from Protestism to Catholicism and back again according to the religion of an incoming monarch and people were put to death for following the 'wrong' religion. It was so bad that anything that went wrong was blamed on people of the 'wrong' religion or foreigners.
It is believed that Thomas Farrinor started the great fire of London. It is said that he had left some bread on the windowsill to cool when he saw a young thief try to steal the bread. He turned suddenly, causing hot coals to spill on to the dry wooden floor. The floor caught fire, and as all the houses were wooden and close together, a fire could spread quickly and easily.
London didn't actually burn down, but a horrifing fire took over London, called the Fire of London. It took a long time to rebuild London after it.
The Great Fire of London started by accident in a baker's shop in Pudding Lane in 1666. Pudding Lane is still there although the baker's shop was, of course, burnt down in the fire. At the time, dissident Catholics were blamed for the fire and a Latin inscription on the plinth of the monument to commemorate the fire blamed Catholics, although this was later deleted.
The monarch at the time the Great Fire of London occurred was Charles II.
The Great Fire of London was in 1666 and there was no fire department at that time.

My class and I went on a tour of the new Globe Theater and, if I heard correctly, the tour guide mentioned that the Globe did not burn down in the great fire. It burnt down some time before the great fire occurred.
