  Narrow Street - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Narrow Street is just that, a narrow street running parallel to the River Thames through the Limehouse area of east London.

During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Narrow Street's harsh conditions and extreme poverty encouraged the intervention of early social reformers like George Robert Sims and political agitation for better working conditions led to the creation of some of Londons earliest trade unions.
