All Hotspots are shown on the maps like this:

Hotspot 15

Off Piccadilly, shielded and tall,

A sheltered retreat from them all.

A grand, covered street,

Where the wealthy could meet,

Staying clear of the poor and their brawl.


The policing is strictly their own,

By Beadles with top hats well-known.

With buttons of gold,

The law they uphold,

Where the finest of fashion is shown.


Archaic old rules still hold sway,

Enforced in a Regency way.

No whistling or haste,

In this temple of taste,

It’s the Beadles who keep chaos at bay.
