Petticoat Lane, London - Centre of the Market
Petticoat Lane, London - the centre of the market. A street clothes market on Wentworth Street and Middlesex Street. Secondhand clothes and bric-a-brac had been sold in an area known as Peticote Lane since the early 17th century. An influx of immigrant Huguenots and later immigrants Jews developed the manufacturing in the area and maintained the traditions of trade. Despite a severe decline following WWII, a further influx of Asian immigrants in the 1970s once again restored the areas vitality. Date: circa 1930s

Petticoat Lane, London: A Vibrant Hub of Fashion and Commerce since the 17th Century This evocative photograph captures the bustling atmosphere of Petticoat Lane, a renowned street market located in the heart of London's East End, on Wentworth Street and Middlesex Street. The market, which has been a center of secondhand clothes and bric-a-brac trade since the early 17th century, is seen here in its full glory, teeming with activity. The area's rich history is rooted in the influx of immigrant communities, particularly Huguenots and Jews, who brought with them the traditions of manufacturing and trade. The scene depicted in this photograph reflects the diverse cultural influences that have shaped the market over the centuries. Despite a significant decline following World War II, the area was once again revitalized in the 1970s by an influx of Asian immigrants. The market's vitality is evident in the crowded press of shoppers, the colorful array of stalls, and the enticing displays of hats, suits, and other clothing items. This photograph, taken circa 1930s, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique character and vibrancy of Petticoat Lane, a London institution that continues to draw visitors from around the world.
