Many are unaware that after WW1/WW2, many citizens were given 'prefabricated' homes due to so many buildings being bombed. Ironically, the thought of having an indoor toilet, a private living room, and a garden would have seemed a palace to those who'd lived through hardship.

In this video made by @ ChelseaDan5, and myself, a few years ago, we visited the last of the largest prefabricated sites that were built by German prisoners of war. At the time the site was being developed so I darent imagine what's happened there since.

A glorious, antique photograph of the #Wine Vaults in #London Docks. Nowadays our alcohol arrives on lorries, planes and big, boring ships. Once, our booze adventured the seven seas the old fashioned way just so #England's wine lovers could indulge. 🍷 @lostandlivingpubs

Good afternoon, good evening and goodnight from the beautiful #BethnalGreen, East #London

I just got hit on so hard that I feel as if I just survived a serious job interview. I'll need a week or so to recover.

In 1901/2, Horace Warner photographed some of the depraved living conditions of children in East #London, who he named the '#Spitalfields nippers'. The images have frozen a few souls in time, so we may forever view a time & place long since forgotten. (#UnionPlace, #Spitalfields)
