Poplar: Follett Street, E14 (1)
The changing demographics of the East End are visible here. High up on the building on the right is an advert that I can't quite completely decipher, but seems to be advising that the family grocers previously resident there used to have the largest sale of a certain brand of soap in the world. Their shop is now Hin Cheong's Chinese takeaway, while the building with the buff bricks is in use as a Somali community centre.

Chrisp Street market, under the canopy
There was a thriving municipal market along Chrisp Street in the Victorian era. In 1951 the area was rebuilt, following wartime damage, as part of the Festival of Britain, and the market relocated in the centre of a new pedestrianized shopping precinct. The canopy was added in the 1980s.

Poplar: Saint Frideswide's Mission House, Lodore Street, E14
Saint Frideswide's Mission House was built in 1892 here in Lodore Street and was originally a mission run by Christ Church, Oxford. At first services were held in a room in this Mission House, but a church was later built in Follett Street at the junction with Lodore Street, where the building on the right is now. The Church was severely damaged during the Blitz, completely demolished in 1947 and never rebuilt.
Behind the black railings at the top of the stone entranceway is a small statue, presumably of the eponymous saint. Saint Frideswide is the patron saint of Oxford, accredited with the founding of Christ Church, hence the connection.
