Moving to Whitechapel?

Whitechapel is a district in the East End of London, located around 2 miles from the centre of London and forming part of the large London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is very much a built-up inner city neighbourhood bounded by Bishopgate on one side and Commercial Road on the other. It is easily accessed as the A13 road from Essex extends onto nearby Commercial Road and actually crosses Whitechapel High Street at its junction at Aldgate; in addition, Whitechapel High Street itself becomes the main A11 road out of London. London Underground services are also available in the area with stations at Aldgate East and Whitechapel itself offering access to two lines and trains heading east towards Essex

Whitechapel’s origins are best picked up around the late 16th Century when it was already becoming part of the ‘other half of London’ and attracted the less salubrious activities around at that time such as tannery and brewery operations. The ingress of population from rural areas into London over the next two centuries meant that Whitechapel became home to the destitute, and in large numbers. This problem was made worse during Victorian times when the mostly British population in the area was swelled by large numbers of overseas immigrants, particularly Jewish and Irish, with the result that the area was the most poverty stricken anywhere by the 1890’s. Whitechapel remained poor and rather colourful throughout much of the early 20th Century too, suffering great damage in World War II. Today though it has lost much of its early notoriety; though it is still predominantly working class, with immigrants from Bangladesh being the most numerous nowadays.

The focal point of the area is still without any doubt the area of Whitechapel High Street and Whitechapel Road which frankly never stops. It is an absolute pulsating hive of busy activity, people moving things around, restaurants, market stalls etc. It is long, from Aldgate at the Western end and near where Brick lane joins, all the way down past the Tube station with literally hundreds of independent shops, although more and more chains are creeping in, obviously aware of the retail potential this area offers. The image is being cleaned up as a result and this can only benefit this much maligned part of the characterful but much long suffering East End.

The restaurants in the area are mostly of sub-continental origin with easily the best choice being on nearby Brick lane, the home of curry in London. There is such a huge choice it’s difficult to make a decision, but Cafe Bangla halfway along continually receives praise as being very authentic and not too expensive. Generally though, you will not go wrong here and you’ll get plenty of encouragement from the waiters who stand in the street to apply gentle pressure and attract business but always in a friendly way!

Finally culture plays a strong part in Whitechapel’s modern make up with a lot of effort being put into encouraging the arts and music cultures within the neighbourhood. Additionally the area featured prominently in a few of Dickens’s novels, notably Pickwick Papers.

Famous people associated with the area include artist Tracy Mein and philanderous footballer Ashley Cole
