21828historical_info = flavor_eng.216.historical_info The Spitalfields Riots were a series of violent protests and disturbances in London's Spitalfields district during the late 18th century. It coincided with the economic and social challenges experienced by the working class during the early onset of industrialization, particularly its effect on traditional craft industries. It would lead to several government acts being passed to bring about labor rights and economic change.
