History of Stratford, West Ham, Canning Town, Silvertown etc & lots of historical London Pubs
The Stratford, West Ham and surronding areas site is updated regularly. The sites purpose is to document the history of part of East London that is now generally thought of as London. Enjoy.
Useful Links in London & Essex
As always, I try and provide a few useful links that you may find useful
- the most important are Maps of an area in bygone times.
I have quite a few good links for
Maps of London, but am a little short of
those for Essex.
I can highly recommend one company for census detail, I have been purchasing
their products for some years. Ancestry is not cheap, but I am sure I have had
my moneys worth from them. You can actually try it out for
24 days free, and
cancel easily if you don't like the service!
Essex offers a fantastic service through the Essex Record Office,
more detail to follow.
I get hundreds of emails every day, fortunately most 'spam mails' are deleted by my mail scan settings. The final emails are delivered to various email addresses, and replying to these are not always successful. If you do not hear from me in a timely fashion, please feel free to email again, I do not mind! This is a pure PUBS history site, I doubt if I know where the PUBS are NOW, but try the site for where they were a hundred years ago, again enjoy!
Once you have discovered enough history of Essex; why not study to undergraduate or postgraduate level in Computer Science or Electronics Engineering at the Department of Computing and Electronic Systems, Essex University in Colchester, Essex? It is not only a great place to study, but also a foreleader in technology at an UK leading University with courses and doctoral research in Robotics, Natural Engineering, Intelligent Systems,
Embedded Systems, Networking and Photonics, Laser Technology etc.
