When I scan through this magnificent array of photos, I feel I have been “adopted” into this region of Spitalfields. My urge is to grab my umbrella and carry bag, and head out through the markets, lanes, neighborhoods and shops. Lucky for us, Tony and Libby
have preserved every inch of this wonderful place. Good on ya.

His photographs are so evocative portraying the sights, atmosphere and people so beautifully.
Another gem from The Gentle Author….thank you.

The photo brings back memories of them both.

Thank you. The one of the couple with their dog on the canal bank is at the rear of the houses in Jodrell Road E3. My grandparents lived at 24 Jodrell Road and this shot took me straight back to my childhood. The Huggins shop is in Dace Road E3 and that is the School gate of my School Fordway primary. Thank you so much

As an aside, I own all of Libby Hall’s books and the photos are wonderful.

Thank you for bringing them to us as I would never have known about them otherwise.

Also I read the article about Libby’s dog photos – that too was a treat.

I’m so relieved I discovered Spitalfields Life. You’re a star GA . . . and I start each working day with your article and it puts so many things into perspective.

Thank you.
