Moving to Hackney?

Located around three miles from Central London to the North East, the name applies to the London Borough of Hackney, formed from the metropolitan boroughs of Hackney, Shoreditch and Stoke Newington in 1965. Currently, Hackney is poorly served by London Underground services with only one station, Manor House, located within the Borough. There are however plans to extend the East London Line through the borough, running trains to South London which, given the demands likely to be placed on the area before and during the Olympics in 2012, is absolutely necessary. The North London line (an over-ground service) travels East to West through the Borough, with a stop at Hackney Central, the historical and administrative heart of the area.

Individual parts of the Borough of rich history, given that the Roman road Ermine Street forms its Western edge. In the East the Borough is defined by the River Lee which itself was an important boundary between pre-Roman tribes. In Tudor times much of Hackney was seized and the region became a retreat for nobility, so much so that village of Hackney flourished in the Tudor to Georgian period as a place of rural civility, only brought to an end by the construction of the railway in around 1850. Industrialisation, post-war development and some immigration added to Hackney’s cosmopolitan image and there is extensive renovation underway of the Boroughs large stock of Georgian and Victorian terraces. Additionally, modern apartment developments and warehouse conversions are providing accommodation for the areas ever growing population.

The heart of Hackney Central is Mare Street which slices through the middle of the area and is dominated on one side by popular cultural venue the Hackney Empire. This neighbourhood is also home to the town hall and the Technology and Learning centre, completed in 2002. Church Street is the areas vibrant shopping core and there is a large Tesco supermarket in nearby Morning lane. In fact this large shop chain was founded here originating from a market stall in 1919. There is a planning application relevant to the current site which would see a new a new multi-storey shopping centre and parking built, the aim being completion in 2001.

Eating in Hackney is truly a multi-cultural experience and as a result there is huge diversity. Those in search of fabulous East-African dishes should try Exceline on Mare Street; it’s very authentic and popular in the area. Another place worth trying is LMNT on nearby Queensbridge Road; it’s a gastro experience of a high standard and always receives praise.

The key to Hackney’s development however would appear to be the site of the 2012 Olympic games at nearby Hackney marshes. The impact of such an event on a city like London as a whole just can’t be quantified, but for a Borough like Hackney, the benefits are huge. The infrastructure of the area will be modernised greatly to cope with the influx of visitors and all that will surely improve this at times maligned part of London. Additionally, the spin-offs commercially from such a high profile staging will also be invaluable.

Famous people associated with Hackney include the late singer Marc Bolan of T Rex and novelist Edgar Allen Poe.
