Tudor Hackney

Can you imagine what Mare Street looked like 400 years ago? Enter a virtual reality world, explore Hackney's lost rectory house, and find out about John and Jane Daniell's story of blackmail and court intrigue through video drama.

Links in the house take you to the documents which helped Hackney Archives Department and the Tudor Hackney team reconstruct the house. And there is much more to find out about life in Tudor Hackney, Shoreditch and Stoke Newington.

To enter the Tudor Hackney Virtual Reality House you need to have downloaded the Viscape 3d viewer, which is available via the Tudor Hackney (external) website.
