1648 frost fair

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

The Second Doctor and Jamie McCrimmon visited the 1648 frost fair, where the Thames had frozen over. The Doctor told Jamie that it was a common occurrence of the time due to an ongoing mini Ice Age. The fair consisted of a collection of stalls set up bank-to-bank selling goods and performing theatrics. The theatre included a Mummers play featuring the Lord of Misrule and Robin Hood and his Merry Men. (PROSE: The Roundheads)
