Spitalfield; Perhaps it’s not the most
attractive name for a London suburb. But its early music halls propelled Charlie Chaplin to
international stardom. As a major entertainment district for many decades,
fashion styles evolve in the evenings as the pub and cub scene come alive. Up
and down the streets and alleyways in a mixture of classes and cultures.
Also famous for The artist Mark Gertler
(1891-1939) is perhaps most admired for his 1916 painting The Merry-Go-Round,
which hangs prominently at Tate Modern. He is less favourably immortalised in
the 1995 biopic Carrington, in which he is portrayed as the tormented lover of
the androgynous Bloomsbury artist Dora Carrington.
Spitalfields takes its name from a hospital
and priory known as St. Mary’s Spital founded in 1197. Most of the area was
built after the Great Fire of London and Spitalfield’s market was first
established in the 1680’s. Most of the beautiful houses in and around Fournier,
Princelet and Wilkes Street date from around 1685 when the Huguenots fled France,
bringing their silk weaving skills.
The United States’ Liberty Bell was originally cast in the Whitechapel Bell Foundry
in Whitechapel Road. The pavement here is extra wide ? this was the main way via Aldgate
for cattle and sheep to be driven into London, together
with carts laden with hops for brewing and hay for cattle.
Renowned tailor to Tom Cruze and David
Beckham, ,
The Monkees were manufactured.
