        "body": "<p>Around 1879 Simon Cohen (otherwise Simcha Beker or Simha Becker), a pastry cook across the road at 32 White Church Lane, adapted a house on the site of No. 19 to be an informal synagogue, a <em>Beth HaMedrash</em> (study circle and synagogue) incorporating the earliest known <em>Mikveh</em> (ritual bath) in Whitechapel. In the early 1880s he also insinuated use as a refuge for homeless Jewish immigrants, a ‘Home for the Outcast Poor’. He named this the Poor Jews’ Temporary Shelter shortly before it was closed down as unsanitary by the Jewish Board of Guardians in early 1885. That closure prompted fundraising that permitted the establishment to move, first to 12 Great Garden Street then to 84 Leman Street. Other premises continued to be used as ad hoc refuges or lodging houses. In late 1885 a Shelter employee took five immigrants from Brest-Litovsk to 11 Church Lane, then occupied by Paul Meczyk, a printer, only for them to be turned out on to the street. Cohen fell out with the Shelter Committee, but secured formal permission for conversion of the house at No. 19 into a synagogue when he carried out further works in 1895–6, acting, unusually in a Jewish context, as his own builder. But this did not last. In 1898–9 Jacob King, a publican at the Windsor Castle on Francis Street in Westminster, redeveloped the site with the adjoining plot at 9 Colchester Street. Arthur C. Payne was the architect and H. W. Brown the builder of a house above a factory and office, brick (now painted) with keystones over the windows and shaped gables, one since replaced. Bender &amp; Co., leather merchants, were in occupation in 1900.[^1]</p>\n\n<p>[^1]: District Surveyors Returns: Metropolitan Board of Works Minutes, 11 Dec 1885, p.875: London County Council Minutes, 24 June 1890, p. 564; 4 Oct and 1 Nov 1898, pp. 1061, 1249: Anne and Roger Cowen,<em> Victorian Jews through British Eyes</em>, 1988, p.95: Appendix 6:3 ‘Directory of <em>Mikvaot</em> in the UK and Ireland, 1656-1995’ in Sharman Kadish,  ‘“Eden in Albion”: A History of the <em>Mikveh </em>in Britain’, in Sharman Kadish (ed.) <em>Building Jerusalem: Jewish Architecure in Britain</em>,<em> </em>1996, pp.101–54 (146): London Metropolitan Archives, LMA/4184; LMA/4184/2/1/1; LMA/4184/2/5/1/3: Tower Hamlets Local History Library and Archives, Building Control File 41972: Post Office Directories</p>\n",

        "body": "<p>Built in 1929–32, Whitechapel Fire Station is a rarity as an inter-war London County Council fire station still serving its original purpose. Its origins are earlier.</p>\n\n<p>In the extension of Commercial Road westwards through Whitechapel the Metropolitan Board of Works held on to the triangular site that had been formed from clearance of the south side of the east end of Colchester Street. In late 1872 it decided to build here to replace humble fire stations on Church Lane and in Wellclose Square with a ‘chief’ facility. The site’s first fire station was built in 1874–5 with George Vulliamy as architect, Thomas Stimpson &amp; Co. as builder. It was a lively four-storey building that made the most of its western corner with a rounded turret. The watch-room was at its base, with the engine room opening onto the new road. Beyond there was a large open yard with stables at the back. A superintendent was accommodated on the first floor; above there were rooms for twelve firemen (six married and six single) and a coachman. The station had four horses and three fire engines. As was general, the size of the engine-room doors became a problem. A new engine house, probably designed by Robert Pearsall, was built on the yard in 1899–1900, B. E. Nightingale its builder. Adaptation for the replacement of horses with motor-driven appliances in 1911 included repaving the new appliance room. [^1]</p>\n\n<p><img alt=\"\" src=\"/media/uploads/2017/12/06/fire-station-plans.jpg\"><em>Whitechapel Fire Station, ground- and first-floor plans as in 1975 (drawing by Helen Jones)</em></p>\n\n<p>With two appliance rooms separated by a too-small yard this was an unwieldy complex. The LCC decided to replace it in 1928 when G. Topham Forrest was in charge of the Council’s architects. L. H. &amp; R. Roberts of Clapton were the builders. Rational in its layout, five appliance bays open onto Commercial Road under two storeys of accommodation; again a yard lies to the east. Faced in brown Stourbridge brick, this building is remarkably austere, simplicity that antedates economic hard times and is almost expressionist in the subtlety of its detailing, with chamfered brick courses and arrises, for an architecture close to that produced by Gilbert Mackenzie Trench for the Metropolitan Police in 1928–30 at Charles Rowan House in Finsbury, both anticipating similar work by Giles Gilbert Scott. Bondings, mitres and rubbings were carefully specified. The yard was enlarged up to White Church Lane. In 1938–9 in the build-up to war 351 auxiliary firemen were based at the station for training and accommodated in nearby properties, and steel joists went into ceilings as air-raid protection. A post-war relocation as part of the Gardiner’s Corner project failed to materialize. Instead internal spaces were adapted in 1979, converting flats for a modernised watch-room. Further upper-storey accommodation was given up in the 1990s and the appliance bay doors were replaced in 2000.

Arthur James Robinson sought a long lease of the site to build a curate’s house. The Vestry approved his plans but the project did not advance until 1892 when Robinson put forward a different scheme for a new building on the site of an old cottage and the former engine house. [^1]</p>\n\n<p>The Clergy House was built in 1894–5, seen through by the Rev. Ernest A. B. Sanders with Herbert O. Ellis as architect and Thomas Little as builder. Of red brick with stone dressings, like the parish church that had been rebuilt in the 1870s, its corner turret gave it a strong presence. This was diminished by the loss of a conical roof, perhaps due to war damage, which may also account for the rebuilding of the north flank elevation. The building accommodated not just curates, but also the Working Men’s Club and the Lads’ Brigade on its lower storeys. It was converted to be a Post Office in the mid 1930s and there was upper-storey office use from the 1940s. The building now houses a Japanese restaurant.

        "body": "<p>There was a sugarhouse on Church Lane’s east side opposite Colchester Street (later Manningtree Street) by 1769, when it pertained to James Greenhow. It passed to Davey &amp; Hounsom, John Doorman and Thomas Hodgson up to 1831. North of where John Street (later Assam Street) was formed in the early nineteenth century, there were livery stables, possibly built around 1772 with six houses when the manor of Stepney ceded freehold possession of two acres on Church Lane’s east side to Samuel Bull and John Thompson Bull. The Fir Tree public house was at the south end of the east side by 1760, adjacent to a site later taken for John Furze’s brewery.[^1]</p>\n\n<p>Plain three-storey brick mid nineteenth-century buildings replaced the eighteenth-century sugarhouse. Dining rooms at No. 12, run by Alfonso Pappalardo in the 1930s, were held by Narian Singh from the early 1940s to the early 1950s; this was among Whitechapel’s earliest Asian-run restaurants. Next door, No. 14 was the Hindustani Markaz (Indian Centre) in 1944. John Perkins, a cork merchant and manufacturer, had preceded at No. 14 from about 1840 into the twentieth century. He was building in 1848 and again in 1880 when a two-storey warehouse was reconstructed after a fire, with R. L. Curtis &amp; Sons as architects. At No. 16, two second-floor rooms above Alice Romanoff’s tobacconist's shop were taken in 1900 for the Russian Free Library, moving from 29 Whitechapel Road. These heavily used premises, run by Alexei Teplov here up to 1904 with extensive holdings of Russian books and journals, were described in police reports as a rallying centre for Russian revolutionaries in London. In the mid twentieth century Bonn &amp; Co. Ltd had a large biscuit warehouse behind Nos 16–32.[^2] </p>\n\n<p>To the east of these buildings and immediately south of the churchyard there was a timber yard by the 1790s, opening off newly formed Union Street. Here Mountford Street was formed in 1846–51, laid out as a dogleg cul-de-sac with twenty-two two-storey houses. On the north side of the Union Street corner (south of the rectory garden) a warehouse of 1855 was rebuilt in 1883 as G. Page &amp; Son’s boot factory and warehouse, J. W. Brooker, architect. After the Second World War Buck &amp; Hickman took this site and the Mountford Street houses that had survived bombing were cleared.[^3] </p>\n\n<p>The present building was part of a residential and retail development for Ballymore Properties. A first scheme of 1997 by CZWG Architects and seen as an extension of the Aldgate Triangle scheme to the east was superseded. The block was built in 2000-2 to plans prepared by Michael Squire and Partners, architects, with Robert Bochel as job architect. The White Church Lane site took one of two long five-storey blocks of flats with balconies to the rear. There is grey facing with projecting half-dormers that step up, a colourless echo of Ralph Erskine’s higher-profile and contemporary Millennium Village on the Greenwich Peninsula.

He evidently acquired the freehold of three buildings on the site that now comprehends Nos 34–40 and an empty site at 29–31a Commercial Road. His heir, Adam Bear, granted John Furze &amp; Co., brewers, a 90-year lease in 1899 subject to a building agreement. The brewery was taken over by Taylor Walker &amp; Co., and in 1901 the agreement and lease were transferred to Solomon Kirstein, a printer based at No. 38. By 1902 Kirstein had built 29-31a Commercial Road. There was then a long interval before in 1911 he redeveloped his Church Lane frontage as Kirstein's Mansions, with John Hamilton &amp; Son, architects, and Bewley and Lissner, builders. In three storeys and attics, these shops, tenements and upper-storey workrooms linked to 29 Commercial Road.</p>\n\n<p>Around 1970 David Abraham began selling knitwear at No. 34. His firm continues to trade here in 2016 when painted-shutter street art from 2012, works by Ador at No. 34 and Milo Tschais at No. 40, survived. In 2015 the David Abraham Partnership put forward a redevelopment scheme for the whole site proposing a seventeen-storey tower designed by Stock Woolstencroft.
