Vallance Gardens, Whitechapel
Henrietta Barnett and her husband, Samuel, moved to Whitechapel in 1872 when Samuel became the vicar of St Jude's Church. Henrietta sought to provide parks for children living in cramped Whitechapel tenements, hoping to remove them from the area's overcrowded streets where crime and violence were rife. She transformed a disused Quaker's Burial Ground, established in 1687, into Baker's Row Park for the children. The new park was opened in 1880.
In 1896, Baker's Row was renamed Vallance Road in honour of Mr W. Vallance, the Clerk to the Metropolitan Board of Guardians. The park then became Vallance Road Recreation Ground. A very full history of Vallance Gardens and its social background can be seen at https://surveyoflondon.org/map/feature/1467/detail/

Whitechapel (East London Line) railway station
Opened in 1876 by the East London Railway on the line from New Cross to Shadwell, this was part of the London Underground until 2007.
View north towards Shadwell, but by 2007 this was the end of the line. A week later the line was closed completely for three years. When it was reopened, it was part of the London Overground, now extended north to Dalston Junction (and southwards towards Clapham Junction).
