Description: | At the eel stall at Chapel Street Market, close to Angel Tube station, live eels writhed in large tubs of water. People bought the eels to cook at home, once the stall trader had dispatched them with a knife.
There were two businesses on Chapel Street, both in the name of Manze, selling hot stewed eels.
The market operated seven days a week. It traded mainly in clothing, food, and some jewellery, but there were also services on offer such as palm-reading and the curing of corns. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | �� Henry Grant Collection/Museum of London | Subjects: | work Cityscape | Temporal: | 1955 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
