    Frying Pan Alley certainly is a challenge when it comes to getting an interesting shot. All that atmosphere gone, replaced by faceless offices.

    Stand in Frying Pan Alley today, and face south, and you end up craning your neck looking at this monstrosity.

    Three views of St Katherine Cree church. Two inside the church, which is currently undergoing renovation, and one of an old boundary marker in the old churchyard hidden away behind the buildings that front onto Mitre Street.

              St James Passage yes?

              And what is with the Motorcycles?

                Yes, Church Passage as was. In the late 60s the Square was used for parking, you wouldn't get away with that today.

                  For the briefest of moments, Stewart, I felt like a modern-day Lawende catching a glimpse of a 60s Eddowes with her "date." It gave me a little shiver.

                  Cheers,

                  Robert

                    Fantastic images Stewart - especially for those of us who are somewhat newer to the case to whom the area at that time is something of a lost limbo period.

                    I don't suppose you ventured to Swallow Gardens at that time, did you? Even if you didn't take any photographs, it would be fascinating just to hear what it was like at that period.

                          John,

                          You mean the videos?

                          If you note the first one (Petticoat Lane 1903) you will see an old man with white hair who was obviously around at the time of the scare.

                          Now that thought did hit me hard.

                              Just saw this on another thread, posted by Gary Wroe and it's new to me.

                              The title given is 'Whitechapel Street'. I wonder which one it is?
