Peeps,

A pretty general question but please help,

Yards....there are many around this area in 1888. What are they used for? Stables or storage yards or both or what?

Im interested in those around the murder sites but a general rundown of uses would be helpful.

Cheers big ears !
Monty

Hi, Monty,
Did you ever get an answer to your question? I am curious to know the answer, too. I was also wondering if the backyard fence of 29 Hanbury had a gate out into another street or alley? (And if that street or alley had a name.) I'm guessing it must have had a gate, for them to have gotten into the yard...so then, no one generally locked their doors or gates at night in Whitechapel?
