Seal Street

In the early 16th century Sir John Heron, reputedly the richest man in Hackney, owned a large estate centred on a manor house in Shacklewell – its site now covered by shops. Several villas for gentlemen were built during the course of the 18th century, interspersed with lesser properties for tradesmen, two pubs and a dairy on the south side of the village green. Side roads subsequently proliferated, many lined with cramped terraces, but Shacklewell remained an isolated settlement until Hackney expanded outwards to meet it in the mid-19th century. Perch, Seal and April Streets were laid out in the early 1880s with good quality terraces for working people, and Shacklewell Green was taken into public ownership.
