Вопрос №60

Centuries ago, where the River Thames near London Bridge was slowed down by the narrow

piers allowing the water to freeze, the ice often reached a depth of several inches. But in the

heavy frosts in the seventeenth century, the ice was quite safe to walk on and frost fairs were

held on the river. Open stages and platforms were erected for all kinds of performance and

entertainment, with penny booths, stalls and tents for refreshments. Even whole oxen were

roasted. Large crowds walking over the ice joined the festivities. Contemporary painting shows

that these fairs took place for many years. In fact, in 1698 the frost was so severe that a coach

and six horses was driven right across the river. This was all good fun for the Londoners, but it

was a difficult time for those whose life depended on the river. Thames ferrymen and watermen

were put out of business. Milder winters that followed put an end to these festivities.
