  • Campaign Fact Book Former Whitechapel Bell Foundry Site Whitechapel, London
    Campaign Fact Book Former Whitechapel Bell Foundry Site Whitechapel, London Compiled January 2020 Whitechapel Bell Foundry: a matter of national importance This fact book has been compiled to capture the breadth of the campaign to save the site of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, which is currently threatened by a proposal for conversion into a boutique hotel. Re-Form Heritage; Factum Foundation; numerous community, heritage and bellringing organisations; and thousands of individuals have contributed to and driven this campaign, which is working to: reinstate modern and sustainable foundry activity on the site preserve and record heritage skills integrate new technologies with traditional foundry techniques maintain and build pride in Whitechapel’s bell founding heritage The site of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry is Britain’s oldest single-purpose industrial building where for generations bells such as Big Ben, the Liberty Bell, Bow Bells and many of the world’s great bells were made. Bells made in Whitechapel have become the voices of nations, marking the world’s celebrations and sorrows and representing principles of emancipation, freedom of expression and justice. As such these buildings and the uses that have for centuries gone on within them represent some of the most important intangible cultural heritage and are therefore of international significance. Once the use of the site as a foundry has gone it has gone forever. The potential impact of this loss has led to considerable concern and opposition being expressed on an unprecedented scale within the local area, nationally and, indeed, internationally. People from across the local community, London and the world have voiced their strong opposition to the developer’s plans and to the hotel use and wish for the foundry use to be retained.

  • 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.

  • Whitechapel's Wax Chamber of Horrors, 1888
    Whitechapel’s Wax Chamber of Horrors, 1888 By MIKE HAWLEY A waxwork ‘chamber of horrors’1 museum exhibiting ‘vilely executed waxen figures’2 of the most notorious homicides of Victorian times operated in 1888 at just a few minutes’ walking distance from the location of the Mary Ann Nichols murder scene. The museum’s main attraction were images of the Ripper victims which were added to the display as they were murdered! By February 1889, the museum displayed a total of six images of the murdered women,3 beginning with the unfortunate Martha Tabram, who had met her death on 7 August 1888. In his 1892 memoirs, Worship Street Police Court Magistrate Montague Williams recalled his walk through this chamber of horrors in early September 1888: There lay a horrible presentment in wax of Matilda Turner [Martha Tabram], the first victim, as well as one of Mary Ann Nichols, whose body was found in Buck’s Row. The heads were represented as being nearly severed from the bodies, and in each case there were shown, in red paint, three terrible gashes reaching from the abdomen to the ribs.4 Not only did the proprietor of the waxwork museum operate a chamber of horrors, but he also offered live entertainment nightly in the adjacent building.5 Ever cognizant of the money-making formula consisting of, first, satisfying the public’s desire for vice - in this case violence against women – and, secondly, adding a pinch of sex, the proprietor had as the main attraction of the show a tough young lady named Miss Juanita.

  • Weave Your Way Through Whitechapel and Shoreditch, Following in The
    Estimated time of walk Weave your way through Whitechapel and Shoreditch, following in the footsteps of playwrights and thespians 1hour 15 min - labelled as dangerous subversives - who plyed their trade on the fringes of the City. 2.5 km This walk features sites from the development of Elizabethan theatre. From butchers and leatherworkers in the east, to the infamous Bedlam hospital in the north, areas around the city walls were dirty, exciting and occasionally fatal places to be. In these lowly surroundings, playwrights like Christopher Marlowe, Ben Jonson and William Shakespeare fought, drank and changed the shape of English theatre, and with it the English language, whilst sharing space with other marginalised groups and industries. End here Shoreditch High St New Inn Road Shoreditch High Street Curtain Road Worship St Bishopsgate Liverpool Street Start here Houndsditch Aldgate Aldgate East STOP 1 The site of the George Inn - White Hart pub The layout of the White Hart partially reflects the coaching inn which once stood on this site. Following the line of the Roman road leading to Colchester, Whitechapel High Street during the 16th and 17th centuries would have been home to many establishments providing food and shelter to weary travellers. Like the Boar’s Head, there were plans to turn the George into a playhouse, ultimately no alterations were made.
