Star place was next to it. (That’s the opposite end to Commercial Rd).

To get your bearings Planet ?St ran parallel to Winterton St which was itself parallel to Watney St.
I heard so much about the place growing up.
Planet St was formerly known as Star Street.
All was demolished in the early 60s.

Martha Tabram lodged almost next door at No 4, Star Place and used to drink in the pub.

Seeing the Royal Sovereign @ no. 64 gives me hope a picture may exist and turn up one day. The building was destroyed in a bombing raid during ww2.

For info, Metro Bank will only occupy a corner site for focal reasons.

On which note I believe the Queen Adelaide on Hackney Road to be resurrected in name at least.
