Situated in Jerome Street E1 6NJ, this TE serves Spitalfields and Whitechapel. It used to have BIShopsgate numbers until the late 1960s, but now has 0207-247, 375 and 377 xxxx numbers plus some Inner London numbers. It is perhaps unfortunate that the TE is located in a rather unprepossessing area with the graffiti on the wall in front not helping much to its appearance.
