Monopoly - Pall Mall

Monopoly pink square. £140.

Paille Maille a game played in the 16th and 17th centuries, a little like croquet, was played here and hence the name Pall Mall.
These days home to several exclusive gentlemen's clubs.

  5. Doesn't look like anyone will be playing croquet out there any time soon!

  6. Under the quaint veneer, croquet is quite a vicious game. I wonder if the gentlemen's clubs are as quaint as they appear.
