Title
View of Moor Lane
Description
Illustration from "Cripplegate Ward" by J.J. Baddeley (1921), showing view of Moor Lane looking north towards Chiswell Street, City of London. Baddeley’s description of the foreground is difficult to reconcile. If the narrow entrance left leads to Hanover Court, as seems likely, the corner on the right in front of number 32 would not, as he says, be of Tenter Street but of White Street. The Ordnance Survey map shows a tiny kink at the corner of White Street, which would have meant that the view north would have run almost perfectly straight from that point, but not quite so from Tenter Street. Moor Lane still exists but was entirely obliterated in World War II, except for an electricity substation just north of the Metropolitan Railway. People and a horse-drawn carriage are in view.
