Depends on where you're going and where you're coming from. Somewhere in all my boxes I have a 1799 map of London with hackney fares. I have no idea when I will unearth that little treasure, but when I do I'll ley you know in this thread. Then you can tell me your start and end points and I'll give you the right fare.

Okay, junehur, I have finally unearthed my 1799 map with hackney fares. Tell where you want to go and where you're coming from, and I'll give you the fare.

Oh, thank you sooo much!
I was just wondering how much it would be from Berkley Square to the nearest stand in Whitechapel

Approximately 3s 6d -- that's from Hyde Park Corner, the closest starting point to Berkley Square listed.
