Old Limehouse to Chinatown

Aided by vintage photographs and his personal experiences, Brian Grover leads a tour through the streets of Limehouse, site of London's first Chinatown.

Chinese sailors began to settle here in the 1880s and soon bestowed a distinctive character on the area. Limehouse became infamous as a haunt of opium fiends and criminal gangs, but was this reputation deserved?

This walk reveals legacies of the old Chinatown and separates the myths from the truth about this fascinating part of East London.
