We weren't meant to be here, but my poor knowledge of this corner of East London saw us get off the tube at the wrong stop, en route to see a friend's band. I was darting looks up all the alleys to try to get my bearings, and although I hadn't fully got them by this stage, this small white at least provided a welcome distraction from my muttered "I'm sure it's this way"s. We made it eventually, although I wasn't ever 100% sure.
Coincidentally like the last, Google Maps doesn't show Kings Arms Court on its street map. I know it exists as I took a photo of the alley sign to remind me, but on the street map there's nothing, and I had to drag along the main road on streetview to locate it exactly. It is a staggeringly wonderful tool, but the last two show it's not totally reliable. Still a lot better than my knowledge of East London, though.
