Mrs F sells her jewels—part 2

Part 1 [https://bityl.co/Fq36] looked at why I couldn’t send Mrs F across town to a jeweller & needed to find a local one?
I don’t know #London well so I didn’t use a modern map: roads get renamed, or indeed demolished [https://bityl.co/Fq3j]. I started with Matthew Sangster’s amazing compilation of area maps [https://bityl.co/Fq3j] to narrow down some #Year1819 streets close to her base in #CavendishSquare.

Mrs F is living just north of #CavendishSquare in London. Which jewellers would she go to?

Google #Regency #jewellers & you’ll get Rundell & Bridge, 32 Ludgate Hill—~2.5 miles or ¾ hour walk). (History of the company here - https://bityl.co/Fojr) R&B were the #Royal jewellers, so she’d certainly get a good price there.

BUT below are 3 excellent reasons why she wouldn’t go there.
