East London
Cockney accent territory
East London refers to the eastern boroughs of London, England—a historically working-class area that has undergone significant gentrification.
The East End, its core, is associated with Cockney culture, immigrant communities, and industrial heritage: She grew up in East London.
East London is also a port city in South Africa's Eastern Cape province.
