Here's one of those annoying references...

I was in Borders Books (a US chain), in the magazine section, and noticed a British magazine about modern Victorian decorating. Cleverly, I immediately forgot the name except for the fact that the letters "Victoria" are in it. So there's at least one paper magazine out there.

From a project done by the Worshipful Company of Information Technologists,

History of London

Here's the correct link for the Victorian London snapshots: http://www.lgfl.net/lgfl/accounts/holnet/upload/vl/index.htm

I think Caledon needs some Livery Companies. The Worshipful Company of Texturers, for instance.

A Dictionary of the vulgar tongue of 1811. Not to sully one's speech daily, but sometimes such vocabulary might come in handy. ;)
