Martha spent from before 1861 to after 1881 in the same area of London.
Martha was living steps away from this well known monument which in 1861 would have been recently installed there. (see below)
The Marble Arch called Wellington Arch was built in 1827 and designed to resemble the Arch of Constantine in Rome. It is built of Italian Ravaccione Marble from Seravezzo. It originally stood as one of the entrances to the grounds of Buckingham Palace, but since it was inconvenient for the Royal Coaches to pass through, it was moved in 1851 to where it stands today.
