    Yes, I went by there, and around the land that was once the shipyard. I was reminded of how it rivalled Tottenham as one of the grimmest places in London when I got to the places above. There wasn't time to explore all the high street but apparently it is trendifying a bit. The North end of the high street was a bit desolate for a saturday.

    So some poor carpenter used to let Pepys nob his wife there in return for a favourable word put in which might gain him a better situation. And Christopher Marlowe was murdered there over a row about a restaurant bill.
