In the Amherst-road, close to the viaduct of the North London Railway, where it crosses the Hackney-road, are a number of new buildings, three stories high, built by Mr. Amos, which were being finished in the interior by carpenters, plasterers, and other artisans, at the above hour, when three of the houses fell in, and the weight of brickwork and mortar carried in their descent the floors of the different rooms, until the whole was upon the ground floor. The cries of the poor creatures buried in the ruins were most distressing. Several of the workmen in the neighbourhood commenced removing the debris and extricating the sufferers. Three were found to be dead, and the survivors, most of whom were seriously injured, were conveyed to the German Hospital.\r\n","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":""}],"objectHistory":"This object was part of the John Edmund Gardner collection of topographical prints and drawings of London.

The portion connected with Hoxton, Homerton, Hackney and Bethnal Green was bought by the Hon. Arthur Villiers and donated to the Bethnal Green Museum.
