Secrets of Spitalfields
Starting at Liverpool Street
2 miles
90 minutes
Price £20 per person
Historically, Spitalfields has always been the place that has welcomed outsiders, the ‘nomads of London’ who might just be passing through or might be trying to settle. It was once a very large priory St Mary in Spital, before Henry VIII dispensed with it in the dissolution of the monasteries. In the 1700s the district welcomed The Huguenots, a group of French protestants who fled a hostile France in search of refuge, and introduced the word refugee into our lexicon. For a while, they prospered as silk weavers, and the merchant houses that adorn Brick Lane served as an elegant reminder of their skills as developers. Interwoven in Spitalfield’s history is poverty and a fight for survival, it is evident in the alleyways, the Crispin Street dosshouse, and the Jewish soup kitchen. This area is compact but richly diverse.
