Physical Description

This tramline section is made from steel and has a tapering base with an upright, asymmetrical upper cup. Hackey's good transport links to the City made it the ideal home for commuters in the 1800s. An extensive network of horse drawn trams criss-crossed Hackney from the 1870s. Trolley buses replaced the trams in 1938.
