Question from a viewer about the location of a bare knuckle boxing arena in Stratford East London between 1945-75. Stu's full question is: "My father was an east end copper for 30 years from ‘45-‘75 and he once mentioned a road in Stratford called The Shute or Shoot. I don’t know the correct spelling. Anyway, at the bottom of that road used to be a bare knuckle boxing area? That’s all I know. I can’t find the road or area anywhere. Any further info appreciated. Thought it might be worth a shot."
