Starting in 1851, Great Britain began to flourish economically. The population was rising, railroads were being built, factories had more jobs opening, and there began to be more headway in scientific exploration. The people of Great Britain were starting to become more frazzled since their beliefs were being challenged due to the upsurge in industrialization. Many writers wrote about this and how it made the world an uglier place. They believed that it should stay naturally beautiful. (English Heritage)
