Clapton House

Categories: Property

It stood to the north of Clapton Pond, probably on the site of the house of Thomas Wood, later Serjeant of the Pantry, who lived in Hackney in 1597 and was a vestryman in 1627. The building on the right of the picture might be the first synagogue in Hackney.

Mary Anne Clarke's house

We think Clarke lived in 1803 in the house that can be seen to the left (west) of this church. See the plaque page for why we think this.  And that the Duke of York frequently visited her here.
