Area of the East End of London, in the
district of Stepney, now part of the London
borough of Tower Hamlets. Mile End Green (now
Stepney Green) was the scene of Richard II's
meeting with the rebel peasants 1381, and in
later centuries was the exercise ground of
the London `trained bands', or militia.
