Could it be the Thames-freezing-over event was part of the "little ice age"? i.e. a blip in an otherwise (at the time) more stable climate. https://en.wikipedi

  Yes, it was part of the Little Ice Age. People actually used to skate and hold markets on the Thames, it was frozen solid (the last such market was held in the early 19th century, and the last full freeze was in the early 1960s). Thoroughly confusing for climate-change deniers ofc (and climate-change truthers it seems). But, as I said, it really stopped happening in the mid-19th century.
