DESCRIPTION:The Great Fire destroyed 13\,200 houses in London\, making as 
 many as 100\,000 homeless.  This paper will examine how the restructuring 
 of metropolitan residential structures after the Fire\, and the extent to 
 which the disaster changed individual housing choices.  This will be accom
 plished by examining residential movement of individual Londoners\, both i
 n fired and non-fired areas\, using the records of the Hearth Tax assessme
 nts taken before and after the Great Fire.  This will illuminate patterns 
 of early modern neighbourhood migration\, examined empirically.  As far as
  possible\, this study will be socially comprehensive\, and encompass the 
 experience of a wide range of Londoners from across the socio-economic spe
 ctrum.
