Here are three images taken from a 1903 film shot in and about Petticoat Lane. Apologies for the poor quality.

And three more of the 'destructor' plant, George Yard, dated 1904:-

I can't believe the clarity of these photos. Excellent thread and much appreciative of the time taken. Thanks

[Garry Wroe]

Many thanks, Jonnieola. Here are three more. First, Old Castle Street, 1915:-



Lamb Street, 1912:-



And a Stepney scene dated 1918:-

Old photos, especially ones of this quality, are my favourite thing about this website. Thanks again, Garry. Your work is much appreciated.

[Garry Wroe]

You're welcome, Ken. I'll post a few more over the weekend, other commitments permitting.

Hi Garry.

I agree with Ken. Thanks for posting the enhanced photos, and please keep them coming!

Best regards,

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.

[Garry Wroe]

Many thanks for your comments and observations. Here's a group of rough sleepers on Southwark Bridge (1900) ...



And Lolesworth Street in the Sixties ...

Hello Gary,

I can't say this enough, these images are fantastic. Keep up the great work

[Garry Wroe]

Here's the 'other' Victoria Home, that situated on Whitechapel Road in a photograph taken in the Seventies ...



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.

Thanks, Corey.

From the same timeframe, here's the Goulston Street doorway .......

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.
