Houses in Beccles Street
Description
A view of numbers 8-16 Beccles Street, Stepney, three-storey terraced houses with sash windows, arched doorways and railings. There are cars parked on the road and a bicycle outside number 16. Numbers 12-16 have been demolished and now form part of the site of the Gill Street Health Centre. Numbers 8-10 still exist and now form part of the Passmore Edwards Sailors Palace, which can be seen at the end of the terrace. The Sailors Palace is built of red brick with Portland stone bands and has arched windows at ground level. Its main entrance, a turreted gate house with a figurehead of Brittania carved in stone is situated at 680 Commercial Road. This building was the headquarters of the British and Foreign Sailors Society and also housed the King Edward VII Nautical School. It has since been converted into flats.
