Rural Nooks Round London: Middlesex and Surrey (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Rural Nooks Round London: Middlesex and Surrey

A good many years have now passed since I left London fir what is, to all practical purposes, the country. London is, in many ways, a desirable place, but there is rather much of it, and it is becoming more and more a place in which only the very wealthy can live with any great degree of comfort. House rents have grown enormously, and rates of late years in more than a just ratio. Lihe the vast majority of people I want value fir money, and I have not yet found that person who is prepared to admit that he obtains full value for what he pays in rates and taxes. I do not expect to find him outside a lunatic asylum.
