Upper North Street, Poplar
An attractive terrace of grade II listed Georgian town houses, a happy survival in an area comprehensively redeveloped since the Second World War. The effect is spoiled somewhat by the mauve wheely bins.

Trinity Methodist Mission, East India Dock Road
By Cecil Handisyde and D. Rogers Stark, 1949-51. Very distinctive and original owing to its angular tower (the bell apparently survives from the predecessor destroyed in the war) and copper-clad body set within a concrete frame. It was included in the Exhibition of Live Architecture, part of the Festival of Britain at the nearby Lansbury Estate.

Queen Victoria Seamen's Rest, 121 -131 East India Dock Road, E14
A seamen's hostel -- the last in East London and the largest in the UK. Many retired seafarers now live here. See the Merchant Navy Welfare Board link http://www.mnwb.org/index.php/news-reader.89/items/queen-victoria-seamens-rest.665.html

Seamen's Rest, original entrance
This is the Jeremiah Street entrance of Queen Victoria Seamen's Rest opened in 1902. See http://www.portcities.org.uk/london/server/show/ConNarrative.141/chapterId/2941/The-welfare-of-seamen.html for contemporary photos.
Earlier there was a small mission, run by the Wesletyan Methodist church, consisting of a plainly furnished reading room and rest room with a third room available for daily Bible and Prayer meetings. An elementary nautical school ran three mornings a week and services were held on Monday and Friday evenings.
Prior to that on this spot stood a tavern appositely named The Magnet - a considerable attraction, no doubt, to the recently-paid-off sailors who thronged this area. The Methodists had it closed down and took over the site.

Grundy Street, Poplar
Seen from the junction with North Street. A combination of enemy action and slum clearance schemes means that most of Poplar has a post-war appearance. In this view there are various housing styles and a few remaining older buildings.
