It is two storeys, plus an attic and a basement. Part of its interior, such as some wood panelling, dates to the 16th century.Believed to have formerly been a watch house, from which somebody looked out for body snatchers in the adjacent St Leonard's churchyard, the ground floor is now a business, while the upper floors remain residential.

Shoreditch is a district in the East End of London in England, and forms the southern part of the London Borough of Hackney. Neighbouring parts of Tower Hamlets are also perceived as part of the area. In the 16th century, Shoreditch was an important centre of the Elizabethan Theatre, and it has been an important entertainment centre since that time. Today, it hosts many pubs, bars and nightclubs. The most commercial areas lie closest to the city of London and along the A10 Road, with the rest mostly residential.

Shoreditch (St Leonard) was an ancient parish in the county of Middlesex. It was both a civil parish, used for administrative purposes, and an ecclesiastical parish of the Church of England. The parish church is St Leonard's, Shoreditch, often simply called "Shoreditch Church".

St Leonard's, Shoreditch, is the ancient parish church of Shoreditch, often known simply as Shoreditch Church. It is located at the intersection of Shoreditch High Street with Hackney Road, within the London Borough of Hackney in East London. The current building dates from about 1740 and is Grade I listed. The church is mentioned in the line ""When I grow rich", say the bells of Shoreditch" from the nursery rhyme Oranges and Lemons.The crypt beneath the church is the final resting place of many actors from the Tudor period.

Shoreditch was a railway station on the North London Railway (NLR) in Shoreditch, London, that was in use from 1865 to 1940. It was situated on a viaduct between Haggerston and Broad Street stations. It should not be confused with Shoreditch Underground station (1869–2006) on the London Underground, situated about half a mile further south. It was also not the first main line railway station to possess the Shoreditch name; Bishopsgate (1840–1875) was originally given that name.

Shoreditch Town Hall is a municipal building in Shoreditch, London. It is a Grade II listed building.

The Metropolitan Borough of Shoreditch was a Metropolitan borough of the County of London between 1899 and 1965, when it was merged with the Metropolitan Borough of Stoke Newington and the Metropolitan Borough of Hackney to form the London Borough of Hackney. The borough was made up of three main districts: Shoreditch, Hoxton and Haggerston. An individual coat of arms was never granted to the metropolitan borough council; they adopted the arms of the second lord of the manor of Shoreditch, John de Northampton.

Shoreditch High Street is the old main street of Shoreditch, London. It is part of the A10 road and connects Norton Folgate to the south with Kingsland Road to the north. It constitutes a segment of the Roman Ermine Street, which ran directly north from London to Lincoln and York. The parish church of St Leonard's, Shoreditch is situated at the north-east end of the road, at the crossroads where it meets with Hackney Road. In the past, Shoreditch High Street boasted both a prestigious theatre and a music hall, though these are now long gone; no trace survives. The National Standard Theatre at 2/3/4 Shoreditch High Street opened in 1837. By the late 19th century it was one of the largest theatres in London. In 1926, it was converted into a cinema called the New Olympia Picturedrome. The building was demolished in 1940. Sims Reeves, Mrs Marriott and James Robertson Anderson all performed there; the theatre also hosted programmes of classical opera and even Shakespeare, sometimes featuring well-known actors including Henry Irving. The Shoreditch Empire, also known as the London Music Hall, which opened in 1856, was situated at 95–99 Shoreditch High Street. It lasted longer than most East End halls, but finally closed in 1934 and was demolished the following year. As it traverses modern-day inner city Shoreditch, the road is lined with (sometimes derelict) commercial premises. To the east is the Boundary Estate, formerly the infamous "Jago" of Arthur Morrison's 1896 novel A Child of the Jago. The concentration of striptease pubs located along the road continues the local low-life tradition, though the recent opening of some trendy bars that cater to the affluent residents of nearby Hoxton indicates the arrival of gentrification in the area.A large department drapery store called Jeremiah Rotherham & Co once existed in the High Street, taking up the frontage from 80 to 91. The store also purchased the adjacent Shoreditch Empire Theatre in 1934 and built a warehouse on the site. When the main store was destroyed by bombing during the Blitz the company transferred to the new warehouse and reopened.

Mildmay Mission Hospital is a specialist voluntary charitable hospital and rehabilitation centre located in East London. It is the only hospital in the United Kingdom specialising in the care of HIV/AIDS and related conditions, and the only one in Europe specialising in the treatment and rehabilitation of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders.The first Mildmay Hospital was established in 1877 by Catherine Pennefather and a group of deaconesses of the Mildmay Mission in a warehouse near Shoreditch Church. In 1892 it moved to purpose-built premises on Austin Street, Bethnal Green, to serve the population of the nearby Old Nichol rookery and, later, the Boundary Estate. It was incorporated into the National Health Service (NHS) in 1948 and continued to operate as a cottage hospital until 1982, when it was closed as part of a broader administrative reorganisation of the NHS. After extensive campaigning by Helen Taylor Thompson and others, in 1985 Mildmay was reopened, first as a nursing home and then as an AIDS hospice; in 1988, it resumed operations in new premises off Hackney Road, and has remained primarily dedicated to HIV/AIDS care since.Further redevelopment of the area led to demolition of the 1980s building, and in 2014 the hospital moved into its latest premises at the same location. During the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom, Mildmay became the primary referral unit for unhoused Londoners with COVID-19 requiring non-intensive inpatient care. After renewed threats of closure in 2020, its services were expanded to non-HIV care pathways, including step-down care for rough sleepers recovering from illness or injury, post-detoxification care (since 2022), and general neurorehabilitation (since 2023).Since its reopening, Mildmay has operated as an independent organisation which provides healthcare and social services under contract to the NHS. Approximately 80–85% of its expenses are funded by the NHS, with the remainder covered by donations and fundraising activities. As a tertiary referral hospital, Mildmay has no A&E department and, since the COVID-19 pandemic, has offered no outpatient or day-hospital services. Referrals for inpatient admission are accepted from anywhere in the UK.As of 2024, Mildmay is rated "Good" by the Care Quality Commission (down from "Outstanding" in 2017). Its CEO is Geoff Coleman, and its president is Lord Fowler, former Secretary of State for Health and Social Services and Speaker of the House of Lords.In February 2024, it was announced that the London Overground line running from Stratford to Richmond/Clapham Junction is to be named the Mildmay line, in honour of the hospital's work during the HIV/AIDS crisis in the 1980s and 1990s.
