Nestled between #Leytonstone/#Stratford sits a legendary pub which saw the beginning of @IronMaiden. Feel free to relay your own band memories. 🤝

Reasons to hate #Stratford.

Walking around #London, one isn't taken back by beauty & impressive architecture but the grot & grime which builds up on unimaginative new builds. I feel too many ignore how bad this situation really is but for me, it's a symbol of todays times.

#Stratford? Or any other city in the world?

Other than telling you where this is, what recognisable traits of #London can you see in this video? Where is the architectural brilliance or any sign of England?

#911Anniversary
May We Remember

Recorded on 11/09/2021 beside a piece of the wreckage in #Stratford, #London. May those of us who are alive to remember, recall the true nature of the sickening evil & unnecessary horror that took place in #NewYork, #USA. #RIP
#Stratford is the absolute pitts, look at this criminality motivated advertisement for #London youths. Just being in the area is bad enough but watching it decline every day is far worse. Conspiracy to commit theft, assault, disturbance of the peace and more...

The public house was closed in 2013 with planning applications approved to demolish & replace it with flats as long as they retain the pubs facade. @Britains___Pubs
Nissan, prefabricated steel huts on Bridge Road in #Stratford, #London during #WW2 (opposite the trainsworks warehouse). Prefabs acted as replacements for homes destroyed during German Air raids. It's crazy to me to compare the #Stratford of the past with the hell I know today.
In 17th century #Stratford, #London, this was the site of ‘The Swan’ pub & holsterie & existed as a very vital stop for omnibus terminus, & later for coaches & trams as their final stop before entering the #CityOfLondon. The area has declined since.

When I was tiny, I looked at the estates and thought I’d love to see them all torn down. I thought in my young naive age, that modernism was a good thing and that the entire place should be rebuilt to better represent #London as a whole. However, when the process began, though I was still young, it became apparent that my childhood dream would in fact become a living nightmare throughout my adulthood.

- In reference to #Stratford on the lead up to the 2012 #Olympic games, the one's which ruthlessly tore apart my home and heart.

Crime Ridden, SHXTHOLE

I should know, it once resembled home ground. #Stratford, east #London was a ghetto my whole life, upon building this horrific shopping center the crime simply increased. First day I shopped here, lad was stabbed to death in the indoor Hugo Boss doorway.
