London - Other Sites
|
| Like the Shelley residences, other sites of interest in London have for the most part fallen victim to urban renewal. Skinner Street still exists, although the Godwin address at number 4 has disappeared. One can guess at the general location, however, and enough period buildings remain in the vicinity to give a sense of the architecture of the place. |

|
| The Serpentine, where Shelley's first wife, the unhappy Harriet Shelley, drowned herself, is still a public park. |
|
|
| Her body was thought to have washed downstream to the lower reaches. |
|
|
| The site of Saint Mildred’s Church, where Mary and Shelley wed shortly after Harriet’s death, is now occupied by an office building. |
