After You've Gone: East End Shopfronts

May 21st, 2012
Ooo Photos of shop fronts...!!

Fans of derelict London, old signs and East End history might like to visit an exhibition of images taken by Alan Dein, an oral historian and broadcaster, who lived in Stepney, East London in 1988 and decided to capture these retail relics on film before they vanished...

Local History and Archives Library, 277 Bancroft Road, E1 4DQ

I'm sad now. I followed the link & no photos

It sounds like a great exhibit. Unfortunately it's a little too far away for me to see in person.

I hope you enjoy :)

Sounds really good. Both of my parents were born and bred in Stepney! I will tell them about this :) thank you!
