Haarlem, Netherlands
I'm trying to research life in Haarlem (Netherlands) in about 1600, two things in particular:
1. what would the prevailing building material be - brick, stone, what colour? From the little I've seen, it looks like brick and sandstone but with some grey stone too. Googling hasn't helped...
2. what sort of street food would have been around? In season, I guess herring, same as now, but in winter people would want something hot. What would the stallholders have sold?
