This striking black building stands at the junction of Morning Lane and Chatham Place. The Aquascutum factory shop offers a range of the company's products at significantly discounted prices.

The old graveyard, probably of St Augustine's, the church that St John's replaced in 1792, has been cleared of gravestones. Those looking for a specific gravestone will be frustrated much more often than not!

Sutton House was built in 1535 by Sir Ralph Sadleir, Principal Secretary of State to Henry VIIIth, and is the oldest residential building in Hackney. It was bought by the National Trust in 1938 but after the 'Save Sutton House Campaign' stopped the house being turned into luxury flats it was finally opened to the public in 1994. It is now very much a centre of the local community.

It has toured with The House of Fairy Tales since 2009 and been enjoyed by thousands. The sculpture is based on Alice in Wonderland "with its distorting interior displacing our expectations".
