Mappery For the love of maps

The World with Chandeliers

Berl sent me this, he said “Seen on one of the walls of the ‘Leyton Engineer’ pub in East London in what used to be Leyton Town Hall. I was on my way to see a Leyton Orient game and popped in to have a bite to eat and a tipple and meet my son.”

Glad to see that Leyton Council had such a global view.

For those of our readers who don’t know of Leyton Orient, they are a football club based in East London. The name apparently came about as a suggestion from one of their players, Jack R Dearing, who had worked on the Orient Stream Navigation Company (otherwise known as the Orient Line).
