EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative aerial view, the historic Forest Gate Hospital in East London, London E7, comes into focus. Originally established in 1854 by the Whitechapel Union as an industrial school for 800 children, the site later served as the Forest Gate District School from 1868 to 1897. The red-brick building, with its distinctive Victorian architectural features, stands as a testament to the area's rich history. The industrial school was designed to provide education and training to the children of the poor, ensuring they were equipped with essential skills for employment. However, during the late 19th century, the building underwent a transformation and became the Forest Gate District School. In 1930, the hospital took center stage, providing essential health care services to the community until the 1980s. The red-brick structure, with its expansive grounds, offered a sanctuary for those in need of medical attention and care. As you gaze at this image, you can't help but be transported back in time.
