Tower Hamlets, Covent Garden

Tower Hamlets has one of the longest gang histories in London. Even as far back as the 1900's E1 and E2 areas were populated with numerous street gangs, or mobs as they were known back then. Originally a hub for Jewish immigrants, the gangs of those times were predominantly Jewish and included the Yiddishers (one of whose members Jack Spot went on to become an organised crime figure), Bessarabian Tigers, Odessians and the Jewish Mob. Other early gangs included the indegenous Blind Beggar Gang, Bethnal Green Mob, Whitechapel Mob and the Watney Streeters (who later became involved with the Kray twins).
