Hi Tammy:
Glad you got the info about the 2 Mile Ends. I was about to send an answer
myself, when I found your thank you message. However, I can tell you that
Walthamstow is about 6 miles from Stepney. Also it may be helpful (not in
your case, but perhaps for other "listers") to know that the Colchester Mile
End is sometimes written as "Myland".
Regards,
David Lamb
