The Aldgate Pump (1874)
Aldgate Pump is a historic water pump located at the junction where Aldgate meets Fenchurch Street and Leadenhall Street.
The pump is notable for its long, and sometimes dark history, as well as its cultural significance as a symbolic start point of the East End of London.
The term 'East of Aldgate Pump' is used as a synonym for the East End or for East London as a whole.
