The house is on a little over 1/4 acre, 2 story, 3 bedroom, 1 bath, full basement. It was built about 95 years ago along with very similar houses in the neighborhood.

Two examples of these types of nursery rhymes origins are 'Ring a Ring o Rosies' which refers to the Bubonic plague and 'Remember Remember' nursery rhymes which allude to Guy Fawkes' foiled attempt to blow up the English Houses of Parliament! Many of the words and nursery rhymes lyrics were used to parody the royal and political events of the day, direct dissent would often be punishable by death! Strange how these events in history are still portrayed through children's nursery rhymes, when for most of us the historical events relationship to the nursery rhymes themselves are long forgotten! Help us to maintain our history and heritage through the words and lyrics of old Nursery Rhymes. Contact us at webmaster(a)rhymes.org.uk - we'd love to hear from you! Androcles. |
