Premises on Cheshire Street, E2
Seven bays of a nine bay building, four of which to the right are two storey. Depending how old it is, it may be a railway building dating from before the building of Liverpool Street and its approaches in the 1860s, It is certainly on the site of one. The upper level would be on the level of the viaduct into the old Bishopsgate terminus. Street level could have been accessed via wagon lifts and tracks passing under the viaduct arches, but the Liverpool Street approaches would have severed these as the new tracks ramp up from below street level to viaduct level.

The Bath House, Cheshire Street
Once a public bathing facility, an essential amenity when many dwellings had no internal bathroom. Now it is home to an amateur boxing club http://www.reptonboxingclub.com/ , another important amenity in an area with higher than average youth unemployment and social exclusion.

The Carpenters' Arms seen from St Matthew's Row
The Carpenters' Arms was bought by the Kray twins in the autumn of 1967. They needed their own safe place in which to drink, and from where they could issue orders. This local pub fitted the bill perfectly. It had a narrow bar and one doorway to the road so nobody could get in unobserved. It was from here they set out to kill Jack "the Hat" McVitie on 28th October 1967.
It is still a pub but appears to have gone somewhat upmarket since the arrest of the Krays in 1968.

St John's & the Underground
The picture is of St John’s Bethnal Green and the Underground Station. The lad on the steps of the station and his mates begged to be immortalised on the website once they were convinced I was not taking pictures for MI5!
