Dinmont Street was built in 1822.
Sebright’s Estate was long undeveloped. Aware of its ’increasing and improving neighbourhood’, the trustees obtained an Act in 1813 to grant long building leases. In 1821 they leased a large part north of Hackney Road to Joseph Teale of Shoreditch, who was responsible for the building of Seabright Street by 1822.
Seabright Street became Dinmont Street in 1886.
After the Second World War, because of local rebuilding, the street was curtailed in length.
