Orchard Place (formerly Orchard Street) runs east-west along one of the two arms of the Leamouth Peninsula. Until 1936 when most of its houses were demolished, this was one of London's most deprived and undesirable areas. Thereafter both parts of the peninsula continued to be used for industry until recently. They are now being redeveloped as a high-density residential area, but some of the old character is still identifiable in this view.
