It was named after a bowed bridge built in the 11th century, that was used to cross over the River Lea. The bridge has since been demolished and replaced with a characteristically un-bowed bridge, yet calls to change the name of the area to ‘Un-Bow’ or ‘Straight’ have gained little traction. The area recently underwent a lot of regeneration in anticipation of the 2012 Olympics held in nearby Stratford, upgrading some local housing and facilities. It’s popular with young families, as well as arty young professionals attracted by the proximity to cultural centres such as Shoreditch and Hackney. The local architecture is a mixture of period housing and high-rise flats.
