Finsbury Square
Finsbury Square. "George Dance the younger designed the Square, and it was constructed 1777-1792. From 1778-1798 James Lackington the bookseller had a shop in the southeast corner of the Square called "TheTemple of the Muses." It had 140 feet of frontage and in the center of the shop was a huge circular counter around which it was said a coach and six could have been driven. There was a flagpole from which a flag was flown when the owner was in residence. The shop was considered a London sight. " - http://www.georgianindex.net/London/squares/l_square.html
