The term EastEnd was first applied to the districts immediately to the east of, and entirely outside, the mediaeval walled City of London.
By the late 19th century the EastEnd roughly corresponded to the metropolitan boroughs of Stepney, Bethnal Green, Poplar and Shoreditch, which correspond to the modern boroughs of Tower Hamlets and part of Hackney.
Parts or all of Newham are sometimes considered to be in the EastEnd, however the River Lee is often considered to be the eastermost boundary of the area and this definition would exclude the borough but place it at the heart of East London.
