Hammersmith, 1632–1635

View through CrossRef
Abstract sometime between September 1631 and the following September, Milton’s father retired from business, gave up the home and shop in Bread Street, and went to live in Hammersmith, a suburb of London in the Middlesex parish of Fulham. He was approaching seventy. It is reasonable to suppose that the move took place soon after John’s graduation from Cambridge on 3 July 1632. Young Christopher withdrew from the University at that time, having spent only five terms there, and on 22 September, at the age of seventeen, he was admitted to the Inner Temple as a law student. John was not attracted by the law, nor was he yet ready to enter the ministry. With his parents’ consent, he joined them in their new suburban home, and settled down to study and write.
