Summary[edit]

Description
English: Trees in Shoreditch Park Peaceful now, this area has had a chequered history. A market garden before 1850, during latter half of the 19th century it became an area of high density housing, comprising terraced rows aligned along narrow streets. Many of these houses were badly damaged in the war; first by the blitz, and then by V1 and V2 rocket attacks. The remaining houses were demolished in the 1950s to make way for prefabs, before the site was levelled and turn into a community park during the 1980s. A community archaeology project here has found much C19 and C20 material revealing domestic conditions in the recent past.
