I was abandoned and left in a market, as a baby in stepney, I was given the name ian macdonald, I do not know anything about my birthparents, I was born in 1958

As you posted your topic originally under my sticky on how to search, I have to ask if you actually read that post and have followed any of the suggestions on it so far?

While I am not clear on all of the laws surrounding adoption in the UK, I do believe that their adoptions were also closed and locked in the 50s.

What have you done already in your search?

And if you were abandoned, and no one knew who you were, and perhaps put in some type of foster care and latter adopted, no one knows who you were, so expect to post your info on adoption web sites, there is nothing else you could really do
