In fact, St. John’s has been home to a community of talented craftspeople for centuries, from bookbinders and master clockmaker’s to numerous jewellers of silver and gold; all renowned ‘smiths’ of their trade. This connection continues today through the area’s thriving creative scene and annual Clerkenwell Design Week, which every May transforms the historic streets around The Smithson into a showcase for leading contemporary art and design, from both local makers and international brands. 7 CHAPTER 01 LOCAL AMENITIES _ WHATEVER THE TIME OF DAY, THE STREETS SURROUNDING THE SMITHSON OFFER A WEALTH OF PLACES TO EAT, DRINK AND MEET. d Rodney Street a o Gerrard Road R New N Road n Eagle Wharfe Road Whardale Road ia n o d le a Angel Vincent Terrace C White Lion Street York Way Donegal Street Midland Road Wharfe Road Collier Street Wenlock Road King’s Cross Colebrooke Way Shepherdess Walk Pentonville Road Arnwell Street St. Pancras Goswell Road New North Road Mylne Street Murray Grove City Road International Provost Street Penton Rise Gray’s Inn Road Bevenden Street Kings Cross Road Great Percy Street Nile Street Swinton Street City Road Acton Street 8 CHAPTER 01 Judd Street East Road Euston Road Cartwright Gds Fredrick Street Cubitt Street 11 Lever Street Brunswick Place Goswell Road Bath Street Upper Wobum Place k LOCAL OCCUPIERS HOTELS l Percival Street Sidmouth Street a w Rosebery Avenue 1 Agent Provocateur 1 Citadines 13 Skinner Street Old Street Central Street Old Street Farringdon Road 2 Allford Hall Monaghan Morris 2 Malmaison in 3 Gray’s Inn Road Mecklenburgh Square 3 AKQA 3 The Rookery Tavistock Place 6 Exmouth Market m 5 min w alk 4 Alexander McQueen 4 The Rosebery 0 14 5 Amazon 5 The Zetter Townhouse Hunter Street 1 St. John Street 6 Amnesty International Marchmont Street Woodbridge Street 7 Beats by Dr Dre (Apple) Bloomsbury 21 8 Ben Sherman Farringdon Road Dallington Street t 9 BulthuapBunhill Row e GYMS Bowling Green Lane e City Road Wobum Place r 4 t 10 Deloitte Digital S Northburgh Street Clerkenwell Close 1 Gym Box Farringdon e Old Street 11 Fred Perry d Gordon Square r o 16 12 Grey London 2 MOB45 f 2 k 20 13 e 13 Hill + Knowlton 3 Virgin Active Barbican S 20 12 Great Sutton Street Whitecross Street Russell Square 4 10 9 14 Kurt Geiger Sq Rosebery Avenue 5 s Guilford Street John Street 15 North Highland Gray’s Inn Road 7 4 John’ 16 Publicis Groupe 8 St. Paul Street Byng Place 5 17 Save The Children 8 Clerkenwell Road 1 18 Starcom Media Vest Group 19 Tesco Blinkbox St. John Lane21 Worship Street 20 Unilever Turnmill1 6Street 18 1 21 Zaha Hadid Architects Russell Square 18 Gardens 14 6 Ridgmount Street Briset St Hatton Wall 9 19 Theobalds Road Farringdon Road Southampton Row Street St. John 11 Benjamin St Portpool Lane 3 BARS & RESTAURANTS Malet Street 1 Hatton Garden 7 Charterhouse SquareBarbican 19 2 3 1 Albion Gray’s Inn Road 3 12 15 Beech Street 2 Anglo Sun Street Cowcross Street 17 3 Club Gascon Silk Street Red Lion Street 2 10 4 Coin LaundrySouth Place 17 Farringdon Long Lane Crossrai 5 Dans Le Noir Goswell Road l Farringdon 6 The Eagle Bedford Sq 7 Foxlow Wilson Street Charterhouse Street 1 8 Granger & Co 9 The Green 2 Moor Lane Moorgate Eagle Street 10 Jerusalem Tavern 15 11 Le Cafe Du Marche Bloomsbury Way 12 The Modern Pantry High Holborn W Smithfield Holborn High Holborn Chancery 13 Moro London Wall 14 Pizza Pilgrims Lane 1 15 Polpo 5 0 Tottenham London Wall Chancery Lane 16 The Slaughtered Lamb Farringdon Street Court Road Holborn Viaduct m 17 Smiths of Smithfield High Holborn i New Oxford Street n 18 Sosharu Wormwood Street w 19 St. John Lincoln Inn Crossrail Fields New Fetter Lane a 20 Sushi Tetsu l k 21 Workshop Coffee Co Kingsway Bream’s Street Charing Cross Road Drury Lane New Square Bow Street Covent Cheapside Fleet Street St. Paul’s Garden Bank Middle Temple Lane Shaftesbury Avenue Cannon Street t Shelton Street e Wellington Street e Russel Street r t S e i Old Compton Street Strand r e v Long Acre u Floral Street o Tudor Street B Mansion House Blackfriars Temple Gracechurch Street 9 CHAPTER 02 02 – CONNECTIVITY CLERKENWELL’S GREAT CONNECTIONS MAKE GETTING AROUND EFFORTLESS. 10 CHAPTER 02 Trains to Bedford/Luton CONNECTED _ WITH THE ELIZABETH LINE King’s Cross CONNECTED TO FARRINGDON STATION, IT WILL BE ONE OF 3 THE MOST ACCESSIBLE IN MINS THE LONDON.

Rotherhithe to Greenwich and to the Arsenal of Woolwich is a part London that is not marked in tourist guides, but how important it is and was! Thames Barrier and the river Lea hidden many astonishing landscapes and historical spot, and non historical spot like the Olympic quarter. Take the tube to Mile End, find the Regent’s Canal and take the path along the canal towards the Ragged School Museum. Mile End was the center of old East London, it was here that industries opened and it was here, where the industrial poverty was at its worst. It is an interesting part of London. The name Mile End probably derives from the pest-time, where the deads were loaded upon a carriage and sent out of London for one mile, there they ended in mass burial places. Entrance of the School 2 During weekend, an actress gives a lesson similar to the lesson given to children at Victorian time, 1850. It is compulsory to book for attending a lesson.

  • These Notes Were Created As Research for the Historic England Heritage Schools Local History Timeline for the Royal Borough of Greenwich
    Brief history of Greenwich These notes were created as research for the Historic England Heritage Schools local history timeline for the Royal Borough of Greenwich. There is so much more information than we could possibly fit on the twenty-one timeline slides. The notes take the story of the Greenwich area from its earliest inhabitants up to the modern day, tracing the evolution of the borough. The story of Greenwich is set in the context of national and sometimes international events, as they shaped the local area. The local evidence for historical events is highlighted in blue in the text. There is also a focus on how history affects the built environment, influencing building styles, art, and architecture. Key building styles and local examples are highlighted in red. There is also a little explanation about the date notation, as this changes over time, from Years Ago, when dealing with the very distant past, to AD for the last 2,000 years. All dates are highlighted in green. Many images of local buildings can be accessed in the Historic England online archive: http://archive.historicengland.org.uk, while photos of listed buildings can be found here: http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk. Links to further resources to support the timeline Enquiry Questions are also provided at the end of this document. We hope this resource will be of interest to teachers and help them answer any questions they or their pupils have about their local heritage. All images used in this resource are © Trustees of the British Museum Prehistory Early humans first evolved in Africa and gradually spread into the Middle East, Asia, Europe and beyond.
