EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration depicts the exterior of the Trinity Almshouses and Chapel in Mile End, London, as they appeared in November 1895. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time over a century ago. The Trinity Almshouses, a charitable institution, were founded in 1696 to provide shelter and support for the elderly and infirm residents of Mile End. The complex, located on Commercial Road, consisted of a chapel and a row of almshouses, designed to accommodate up to 30 residents. The illustration showcases the red-brick buildings with their intricately designed facades, adorned with decorative arches and gothic-style windows. The chapel, located at the end of the row, is prominently featured, with its tall, pointed spire reaching towards the heavens. The scene is set against a backdrop of barren trees, hinting at the onset of winter. The Trinity Almshouses played a significant role in the history of Mile End, providing a vital service to the community for over three centuries. This illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of this area of London, offering a glimpse into the lives of those who lived there over a hundred years ago.
