Thanks for that Luke, a fascinating revelation for me of an old part of London. I hate to hear of the clearings that occurred in the 60s and 70s throughout the UK, as so many historical areas and their architecture disappeared, only to be replaced with soulless structures not deserving the term architecture.
BTW, I had to notice the stewed eels and mashed shop. A London delicacy I just cannot envisage ever trying, unless perhaps very well oiled with London's best.
