To the state the obvious; Hackney Central is the central district of the London Borough of Hackney. Hackney Central consists of the area roughly surrounding, and extending north from Mare Street. During the Tudor period Hackney Central would have been described as Hackney Village.

Hackney Central is the conventional geographical core of Hackney, and before the 1899 London County Council reorganisation, many would have described it to be “Hackney”. Since then, the term has been vastly extended to mean, firstly the 1899 Metropolitan Borough, then, after 1965, the London Borough of Hackney.

Hackney Central Landmarks

Hackney_empire_2Mare Street slices through Hackney’s ‘cultural quarter’ of Town Hall Square – Its north side is dominated by Frank Matcham’s Grade II listed 1901 Hackney Empire music hall, on whose stage appeared Charles Chaplin and Marie Lloyd – who lived in nearby Graham Road.

On the west side of Town Hall Square is the 1934-7 Grade II Hackney Town Hall in Portland Stone. A new town hall complex is being constructed behind the existing building.

On the East side, is the 2001 refurbishment of the Central Library and Methodist Hall, combined to form the Ocean Music Venue.
