Alfred Hitchcock was born at 517 High Road, Leytonstone, above the family greengrocer’s shop, on 13th August 1899. To commemorate the director's link with the area, 17 mosaics have been installed in the entrance corridors of Leytonstone tube station. They are fabulous - well worth a visit. And along Leytonstone High Road there are a number of murals celebrating Hitchcock’s work, as pictured. 

As you can see, we’re out of Yorkshire and into London for a fleeting visit.
