Stepney Workhouse
Walking past the Mercer Cottages from St Dunstan Church, we arrive to this modest newly Refurbished house, but a few years back this was a Public House. The name of it now unknown.
Here is the site of the Former Stepney Meeting Burial Ground , Alms houses and School who were bombed during the Second World War. Stepney Meeting was founded in 1644. The Burial Ground was disused in 1853.
The burial Ground
This is Radcliffe House, built on the exact location of the Radcliffe Workhouse.
Boundary stone of the Hamlet of Radcliffe and the Parish of Limehouse. 1867 is the clearest date.
