Spitalfields Life, a blog and beyond

[Wapping]

Looking for something else, I tripped over this, which some might find interesting.

It’s a bit pretentious in parts but a lot the pictures of a past world are interesting:

I had heard about this but never seen it:

Thanks Wapping an interesting read. Quite a few heroes in that pet cemetery, enjoyed Simon the ship's cat and Mary of Exeter.

It's definitely worth checking out. I've been reading it for a few years. Not strictly focused on Spitalfields, but mainly city /east end. Interesting historical articles amongst others. Recent one about the Brick Lane bagel shop which Steptoe has mentioned many times. I worked for many years in E1 so know that part of London pretty well.
