Brick Lane runs from Spitalfields at the North end down
to Aldgate at the South. In addition to its fascinating history, the street is
best known for the sprawling market that takes place every Sunday (North of the
old brewery) and also for the unrivalled choice of Bangladeshi restaurants that
you can find along its length. Other markets nearby are Spitalfields and
UpMarket, both indoors. The Old Truman Brewery, about half way up Brick Lane, is
now home to a lively media / fashion / arts scene, with the buildings converted
to studios and workspace.
