Limehouse Causeway (1908)
My great grandparents were the first to live in 15 Tomlins Terrace, then my grandparents and parents after marriage. I spent the first two years of my life there. My nan and her family lived at number 13 Tomlins Terrace. My maternal grandmother lived in Maroon house, Blount Street with my uncle. Nan, my mum and her brothers were bombed out three times during the war.

Frank Whipple Place, E14
Frank was my great-uncle, I’d often be ’babysat’ by Peggy while Nan and Dad went to the pub. Peggy was a marvel, so full of life. My Dad and Frank didn’t agree on most politics but everyone in the family is proud of him. A genuinely nice, knowledgable bloke. One of a kind.

Armed guard during 1919 civil unrest
During the 1919 civil unrest, a company of soldiers guarded the power station day and night - if it was forced to close down, a large part of London’s transport system would be inoperable.

All of the terraced slum housing on JERSEY ROAD was demolished and the area rebuilt with modern housing in the late 1940’s, early 1950’s. Subsequently, the road was renamed SARK WALK.
