RUSSELL STREET

The busy scene outside the Meat Market, in the early 1920s. Looking north to Upper Russell Street. At the right can be seen the entrance to Russell Place, with the openings to Bodles Court and Kents Court beyond. The large building at the left was formerly the Church of the Resurrection, built in 1877 for the poorer people in this area but given up about 1912. The names MARLEY and BORTHWICK appear together in only the street directories or 1921, 1922 and 1923, so the photograph must date from one of those years.
