Comments on: People From Spitalfields’ History https://spitalfieldslife.com/2022/04/01/some-people-from-spitalfields-history/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Tue, 12 Apr 2022 00:02:12 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: John Cunningham https://spitalfieldslife.com/2022/04/01/some-people-from-spitalfields-history/#comment-1456286 Tue, 12 Apr 2022 00:02:12 +0000 https://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=191097#comment-1456286 What great illustrations of the historical personages who have links with Spitalfields. I’m an occasional visitor from Ireland to London. Until retirement this was purely for business reasons. Now retired I’m making a bit of a hobby of getting to know the good old “Smoke” as an inquisitive explorer. London is almost a country in itself. I’ve travelled widely around the world and would say that this great metropolis is one of the very few that deserves to be called a “world city”. I’m so glad to have discovered Spitalfields and the wider East End of London from a chance discovery of the Gentle Author’s blog. It has enriched me.

Sounds so much more interesting than the Jack the Ripper tours.
When in London…..

May 28. Surley to be a highlight of my visit to London. Well, that and the Queen’s Jubilee, of course.
Why is Dianah Dors barefoot, I wonder?
