A large mosque in a modern architectural style is proposed for this triangular site bounded by Stratford Road, Highgate Road and Stoney Lane (of 'Balti Triangle' fame, a restaurant quarter now much in decline). In the meantime a Lebanese flag flies from a lamppost, in solidarity with Lebanon under heavy bombardment by Israel during Israeli-Hezbollah fighting in October 2024.
