  • Stepney Consultation: Salmon Lane Area
    Stepney Consultation: Salmon Lane Area Tower Hamlets is committed to making the borough a safer place which people can take pride in. We are looking to deliver a range of improvements to our streets for everyone’s benefit, whether you walk, cycle, use public transport or drive. The first area to be reviewed is Stepney as we have received funding through Transport for London and development contributions to improve the area. “This is an exciting opportunity to improve the streets of Stepney. There are lots of small changes we could make which would really improve the streets in this area and discourage dangerous driving. We want to know your ideas – where do you think a small change would make a big improvement? We’ve put forward some of our ideas but we know it is local residents who know their streets best. So share your ideas and together we can Transform Stepney and make it an even better place to live. We’re rolling out improvements in the Stepney area first of all, but other areas throughout the borough will follow soon.” - the Mayor The Transforming Stepney’s Streets improvement area is framed by the A13, Sidney Street, A11, and Mile End Park and has approximately 9,500 residential homes. We are planning to make a range of improvements to the area, to help create better connected walking and cycling routes (including to the many schools in the area), making our roads safer and reducing the volume of traffic using these roads as a ‘rat run’. We also want to improve the look and feel of the area, making it an even more enjoyable, and safer, place to live, work and visit.

  • Mile End Old Town, 1740-1780: a Social History of an Early Modern London Suburb
    REVIEW ESSAY How Derek Morris and Kenneth Cozens are rewriting the maritime history of East London North of the Thames: a review Derek Morris, Mile End Old Town, 1740-1780: A Social History of an Early Modern London Suburb. 1st ed, 2002; 2nd ed., The East London History Society, 2007; a new edition in process to be extended back in time to cover from 1660; Derek Morris and Ken Cozens, Wapping, 1600-1800: A Social History of an Early Modern London Maritime Suburb. The East London History Society, 2009; Derek Morris, Whitechapel 1600-1800: A Social History of an Early Modern London Inner Suburb. The East London History Society, 2011; £12.60 and £3:50 p&p (overseas $18.50), http://wwww.eastlondonhistory .org.uk In three books published to date, two London-based researchers, Derek Morris and Kenneth Cozens, have set about the task of challenging many deeply-held stereotypes of London’s eastern parishes in the eighteenth century. With meticulous attention to detail, and with sure control of a wide range of archives, they have produced three highly-recommended works. The books Mile End and Wapping are in very short supply, if not by the time of this review, only available on the second-hand market. In Whitechapel, with the completion of the first phase of their research, they have ignored the restrictions imposed by parish boundaries: they have begun to draw conclusions about the nature of society in these areas in the eighteenth century. This is welcome for a number of reasons. But chief among these is that for too long historians have relied on a series of stereotypes with the emphasis on poverty, crime and “dirty industries,” to portray these eastern parishes, when in fact the emphasis should be on the important role played by local entrepreneurs in London’s growing economy and worldwide trading networks.
