Mount Terrace, Whitechapel

The name of the street recalls a local landmark, The Mount, a substantial hill, removed immediately before the terrace on the left was built in 1808 in order to facilitate the development of the London Hospital. What looks a little like a trampoline on the building at the far end is the London Hospital helipad.
