yea Kurt .Even in the late 70s & early 80s when I lived in The East End, they still had plenty of such sights.I worked in a school(Beckton/Silvertown)that was next door to an animal slaughter house.(often the most exciting thing for the kids was when a beast occasionally escaped...& white-coated blokes would chase it down the street.I thought of it as "Nature Study".).the rest of the area , a mile long road ,was just wasteland (except for some abandoned 'prefabs" along what was called Eisenhower Drive !)Happy Daze!
