Yes, in comparison with many others. London, the capital of England and the UK, occupies over 620 square miles and is the most populous city in the European Union, with over 7 million residents. London's population is heavily concentrated. The population of London actually almost matches that of New York, and is much bigger than that of Sydney! I hope this helps in answering your question.
The original coinage was in pennies, halfpennies and farthings (quarter pennies). Gradually inflation meant that more and more pennies were needed to buy even smallish items. 240 of those pennies weighed one pound so 'a pound of pennies' was soon abbreviated to 'a pound' and paper notes with a value of one pound (£) were introduced. 240 pennies to one pound continued to be used until 1971 when the British currency was decimalized.

US currency tends to be accepted in non-US countries with an unstable national currency. Because the US dollar is considered stable, it can be safely assumed it will keep its value.

A shop in England may accept whatever it wants as payment, this is a negotiation entirely up to the shopkeeper and customer. He may accept US currency, or other goods, or services, if he so chooses. The vast, vast majority of places will not negotiate in this way though, as then the receiver will have to pay to convert the currency into pounds sterling.
