I agree with Steve that it's not Spitalfields ... but add this link as it shows it rather differently, along with other streets that would have been familiar to my folks (and many other sugarbakers  ;D ;D )

I love Spitalfields Life but haven't read it for a while. Thanks for reminding me about that sugarbakers. There is always something there which leads to further research, and a little sadness as they are still whtlling away at the character of the area and replacing it with huge glass and steel monstrosities despite the very active community opposing further 'development'.

But I think I am missing something - can you explain which image you are referring to please?

I think perhaps it is the images of the Great Synagogue which is now a mosque (Brick Lane perhaps?)

Sorry, Ruskie ... the third picture down is the synagogue that Skoosh was referring to in #79.

Thanks sb.

Um, centre window and location of doors is different. Also Caz's building appears to be in a courtyard of sorts whereas this is on a corner. :-\

Is it me, but there doesn't appear to be many photos of synagogues around…  :(

 :o :o :o :o  Good grief…there are tons (and some so close to quirky chapel.  :P )

The only reason I've been focused on synagogues is because of the two door aspect, but you're right there is no real evidence to suggest it is.
