Well Street Common is recorded as early as 1442 as ‘Well Street Field’, to the west of a small hamlet along Well Street (the Common has also been recorded as ‘South Hackney Common’ at various stages of its history). Its very interesting history (provided by the Well Street Common User Group) can be found at http://www.wellstreetcommon.co.uk/history.php See also http://www.hackney.gov.uk/well-street-common.htm#.U4ZqpnJdXhI This view is from the western edge of the Common looking towards the houses in Meynell Crescent.
