Sixpenny stage coaches for London routes proposed
A reader argues for extending sixpenny stage coaches from St Margaret's Hill to the Red Lion at Westminster Bridge. Calculations on the Ilington to Holbourn route show eight trips daily in summer and winter, with estimated daily and annual taking. The writer suggests the Borough link could perform similarly and be worthwhile.
