London was a big city in England.
“Victorian London” existed in several universes and was a favourite Christmas-time hangout of at least one incarnation of Jenny Everywhere, who enjoyed the “Dickensian atmosphere”. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
History

The London Zoo houses a remarkably large snake from somewhere in Africa. (COMIC: The Serpent Sorceress)
In the Prime Universe
In the Prime Universe's Victorian London, “clockwork automata were not unheard of, but they would have attracted attention”. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)

In at least one universe, London was home to a bookshop in Soho that belonged to the eccentric angel Aziraphale. (PROSE: You've Been To Eden, I Perceive) A version of him existed in at least one other universe. (PROSE: The Folly of Men)
In Jenny Cornelius's world
In her native universe, Jenny Cornelius lived in 1960s London, “a thousand feet from Carnaby Street”. She was familiar with “Mr Fell”, whose shop was located in Soho “on Greek Street just off Old Compton”, and with Lee Ho Fook, a Chinese restaurant “down in Chinatown”. An office of the Intelligence Taskforce also existed in the city. It was crossed by the Thames, which connected to the West India Docks. (PROSE: The Folly of Men) The 900-years-old Westminster Abbey was another notable landmark. (PROSE: Watch the Skies)
The city of Slough was nearby, out past Heathrow Airport. (PROSE: Birds and Snakes)
Liverpool is much too far unless one is going for a good reason, such as an interesting band. (PROSE: How Jenny First Met…)
