No 36 Upper East Smithfield
My great great grandfather was born at No 36 Upper East Smithfield and spent his early years staring out at a "dead wall" of St Katharine’s Docks. His father was an outfitter and sold clothing for sailors. He describes the place as being backed by tenements in terrible condition and most of the people living there were Irish.

Leman Street (1930s) Leman Street was officially named after Sir John Leman. But Leman Street was pronounced like ’lemon’ locally. Leman/lemon was an older term for a mistress or lover. Our stuffy Victorian forbears decided that this was a tad too racy and Sir John Leman was officially given the derivation.
