Franzé & Evans is a café and delicatessens on Redchurch Street. It was the Black Dog pub from 1828-1917, one of the eleven pubs in the Old Nichol area. When they re-built the Boundary estate, the newly formed London County Council decided that alcohol was one of the major causes of poverty and determined that the area would be 'dry' so they bought out the remaining years on the eleven pubs' licences and closed them down.

The ‘Child of the Jago’ name of this clothing shop refers to the book written in 1896 by Arthur Morrison about a fictional child from the slums.

These flats were intended to house the 5719 inhabitants of the slums; however only 11 of them could afford the new rent of 3s a room; so, they had to move into the old houses nearby, further East. 4 colour screen print, 30x40 cm, £80.
