    Excuse me for bringing this up Garry. This block of Wentworth Dwellings was four units long. Your photo appears to show the last unit (4th). The doorway to 108-119 was the 2nd unit down from Wentworth St.


    Here is a c.1907 shot of Goulston St., on Pettycoat Lane Market day.
    I can't remember who originally posted this but the doorway in the centre of the pic is the 2nd doorway from the left. This is supposed to be the GSG doorway.



    Regards, Jon S.

    From the same timeframe, here's the Goulston Street doorway in which the killer discarded Kate Eddowes' apron remnant. To my mind, it is certainly interesting that he elected to enter the vestibule rather than simply toss the piece of cloth into the basement area as he passed by. It would seem, therefore, that some other consideration drew him into the doorway.

    Astonishing how clean the streets look in all the pics.

    I agree with G M, the old photo's are, like icing on the cake.
