Eagle House at junction Homerton Row and Homerton High Street was a notable 18th-century historic building before its demolition in the early 1950s.  Built in the late 17th or early 18th century, it was a symmetrical two-storey brick building featuring attics, cellars, a modillioned  (ornate bracket) wooden eaves-cornice, and a classic doorway flanked by Doric pilasters. Several rooms retained original fine wood panelling and decorative cornices, alongside a keyed archway in the entrance hall. In 1857, the building was acquired and used by the British Asylum for Deaf and Dumb Females, which had relocated from Stamford Hill before moving onward to Lower Clapton Road in 1864.The structure survived into the mid-20th century as part of the changing landscape of Homerton High Street, but was ultimately demolished in the early 1950s became Upton House now City Academy HackneyBild
