  • Stepney in Peace and War the Paintings of Rose L. Henriques
    NEWSLETTER OF TOWER HAMLETS LOCAL HISTORY LIBRARY AND ARCHIVES LH&A NEWS November-December 2013 Stepney in Peace and War The paintings of Rose L. Henriques The Foothills, 'Tilbury', bombed second time. Watercolour on paper, Rose L. Henriques. c1941. Our new exhibition is a rare opportunity to see highlights from our collections of paintings by the Jewish philanthropist Rose L. Henriques (1889-1972) which launches here on Thursday 28 November at 6.30pm. This event is open to the public and is co-hosted with the Jewish East End Celebration Society. With her husband Sir Basil, Lady Rose Henriques founded the St George's Jewish Settlement in Betts St, Stepney in 1919. Here, the Henriques developed social welfare facilities and services for the deprived local community ranging from youth clubs to washrooms and open to Jews and non-Jews alike. The Settlement was able to expand into its own new premises in Berner Street in 1929 thanks to funding from philanthropist Bernhard Baron, after whom the building was renamed. Rose was an avid artist, serving on the board of the Whitechapel Gallery, and the watercolours in our collection are a unique record of Stepney around the time of the Second World War. Focussing on the regular activities and everyday landscapes of the besieged borough, her subjects include the clear-up and triage activities of the Civilian Defence Service, the controversial air raid shelter known as "Tilbury", and scenes of bombed out synagogues and churches. She also painted everyday life at the Settlement building where she and Basil lived. This exhibition has been curated by staff with the expert voluntary help of art researcher Sara Ayad.

  • 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.

    Cycle Superhighway 3 Upgrade Cable Street – Road Safety Improvements Response to Consultation March 2015 Cycle Superhighway 3 Upgrade Cable Street – Road Safety Improvements Response to Consultation Published March 2015 Executive summary Between 30 January and 27 February 2015, Transport for London (TfL) consulted on road safety improvements to Cable Street as part of an upgrade to Cycle Superhighway 3. We received 90 direct responses to the consultation, 76 (or 85%) of which supported or partially supported our proposals. After considering all responses, we have decided to proceed with the scheme incorporating the following additional measures to those originally proposed: Reviewing the signal timings at the junction of Cable Street and Cannon Street to maximise the green time available for cyclists Replacing the speed cushion with a sinusoidal hump at the junction of Cable Street and Hardinge Street Extending double yellow lines around junctions but not across the cycle track Subject to final discussions with the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, which is the highway authority responsible for Cable Street, we expect work to start in summer 2015. We will write to local residents and affected properties before work starts to provide a summary of this consultation, an overview of the updated proposals and an outline of the construction programme. This document explains the processes, responses and outcomes of the recent consultation, and sets out our response to issues commonly raised.

  • Board of Works
    BOARD OF WORKS FOB THB LIMEHOUSE DISTRICT. SPECIAL REPORT by Mr. OR TON, Medical Officer of Health, upon the CHOLERA EPIDEMIC of 1866. BRA ax. 4 TO THE LIMEHOUSE BOARD OF WORKS. Gentlemen, At the close of June and early part ofJuly, from the unusual state of the weather, the excessive heat, in connexion with almost a stagnation of the atmosphere, littleor no wind for days together, and the more than usual de­ pression generally felt by a summer temperature, Iwas led to expect as the result, from experience of previous years, an epidemic of fever. But on the outbreak of Cholera inits stead, and finding it more especially selecting the fever haunts for its victims, Iwas strongly disposed to watch it,as of course in a limited sense, a substitutionary or vicarious disease, modified by circum­ stances which Iwas unable to apprehend. Then the Register General's views became known touching the epidemic, the suggestion ofthe foul water poison as the cause, conveyed through the mains of the East London Company at Old Ford. At the time this hypothesis was plausible, seemed almost con­ clusive, and I,among the rest, livinginthe very heart ofthe cholera field, was inclined to acquiesce. But facts daily become more prominent. Ihesitated, paused again and again, until at length Iwas convinced that the water had littleor nothing to do with the Cholera. Then a difficulty arose on a point of decorum, in withstanding the opinion of the Register General, whose courtesy to the medical profession has at all times been gratefully appreciated. There was yet another difficultyin the way— either to fall inwith the general opinion, for terror had made allunanimous, or stifle the expression of my own convictions.
