Title
View of Goodman's Yard
Description
A view of Goodman's Yard, Whitechapel, looking west from Mansell Street.

Goodman's Yard is cobbled and adjacent plots of land are derelict due to severe bombing during World War II. The plot of land behind the wall on the left was the site of a goods and parcel office of The London & South Western Railway, and also of The George public house, which stood on the corner of Mansell Street under a curved lattice viaduct that carried the Haydon Square extension of the London & North Eastern Railway.

Remains of the viaduct can be seen in the right foreground. Goodman's Yard is now merely a four-lane street running east between Minories and Mansell Street, part of a one-way traffic system.

The building on the right with the exposed stairwell has been replaced by Urbanest Student Accommodation, and the low level garages and the remains of the railway viaduct replaced by a small green space and office complex.
