The transcription of Trade Directories and census; plus a brief synopsis of the census through about a 100 year time span for the Poplar High Street area. It  gets quite interesting as the years roll on, and we start to see motor vehicles and wireless mentioned in the 20th century.

Please support a campaign for Bangladesh, which will add a few pence to a piece of clothing emailing these companies who wish to see people dieing without decent rights, and also stop shopping in  these places - thank you. E.g. Debenhams, Gap and ASDA (Walmart). I will remove the companies names when they sign up to a fair deal for the workers in Bangladesh
