Answers on a postcard please!
Wow
I couldn't answer any of them!
The only one I can answer is number 4, “Who built St Paul's?”
Assuming this means St Paul's College (now Francis Close Hall), it was Samuel Daukes, with the buildings opening on 8 April 1850 at a cost of £11,700.
It may of course mean something entirely different… Christopher Wren?!
