It seems likely that boyish adventurism would have taken the young Francis over to the gunpowder works, which was two miles upstream on the River Crane. the effects of accidental explosions must have been felt quite badly at the house.

Following the death of the older Francis, the family moved down to Strawberry Hill, near the river Thames.

Francis appears to have been living in Charles Street, near Berkeley Square at the time of his death.
