Mare Street

It starts at the junction of Dalston Lane with the Lower Clapton Road and runs south to the Regent's Canal.

South of the North London Line at Hackney Central railway station, Mare Street follows the A107 to the canal, where it becomes the Cambridge Heath Road.

Mare Street was established by 1593 when the Flying Horse Inn was a staging post for travellers.

The Great Eastern Railway came to Mare Street in 1872, bringing more residential development, as well as institutions including Morley Hall, later the Electric Cinema,[5] Lady Eleanor Holles School (on the site later used by Cordwainers College) and St Joseph's hospice.

The Viktor Wynd Museum of Curiosities, Fine Art & Natural History is located in a former call center on Mare Street.
