Title
Houses in Falkirk Street
Description
Rear elevations of 17-29 Falkirk Street, Hoxton, showing three-storey terraced houses with attached wash-houses on the ground floor. Washing is hung outside the upper-floor windows on the right and two people can be seen through the second-floor window of number 25. The buildings to the left of number 29 were destroyed by a V1 flying bomb in World War II, the same bomb that also destroyed buildings on the north side of Retford Street where this photo was taken from. A flatbed lorry is parked on the right. None of these buildings survive, as they have been replaced by Hackney Community College.
