My granddad was born and raised in Spitalfields. I look at the photos of old and wonder, am I looking at my granddad? I never new him as he died forty years before I was born.

My ancestors arrived in Spitalfields and were silk weavers. These pictures give me some idea of how my grandmother must have lived. She was born in 1900 and with her family was in the workhouse at three years of age and again at the age of 10. At 11 years old she was sent to Dovercourt to learn her trade as a skivvy. Do you have any photographs of the workhouse or more of the localle please?

As I viewed the photos I wondered which side of the street do you feel most comfortable on? The timeframe of the past felt actually peaceful. Great work of art.
