Stepney

The remaining 'true' East Enders, 'Cockneys' if you like, are found these days in Bow, Mile-End, Poplar, Stepney and Bethnal Green. A definition would be something about close-knit but extended families that all live and work in the East End. There are few 'Cockney' families left living in Stepney, and most of them would, as would their neighbours in Bethnal Green, claim to be related in one way or another to the gangster Kray Twins, or, at least, to someone who knew them. But, where is Stepney? There is Stepney Way, a tiny Stepney Green, and a church, and, well, not much else, just post-war public housing with a few streets of Victorian terraces. Oh, and a City Farm!
