This is brilliant. I'm from Ireland west and Londons history fasasates me! But can u tell me, why at the begining, there are old to new fotos, but in the new fotos, the beautiful old buildings towers have being removed. Why is this?

LOL Hackney and Bow are both shitholes now. Not that they were havens back here but evidently better from the photographs ;-0

@TheShittingbull mass immigration did not begin in 1997 you can't just blame new labour. most West indians / south asians came here in the 60s-70s.

Why do people come on here and say how wonderful it was and can we have it as it was. Well no thank you it was a bombsite drab wreck of a place. Much brighter and tidier now. And as for people who say it will always be our Eastend and it's been taken over - well it wouldn't have been if the people saying this hadn't abandoned it and went off to some other place. You lot have only got your selfs to blame if you think it's been ruined - personally I don't!

Definately shots of Bow in this, was born in 1947 in Lichfield rd, the last set of shots are Tredegar Square, used to play on the public swings and roundabouts in there as a child, East End no longer belongs to cockneys I'm afraid.
