Statue of Gladstone with red hand at Bow Church
The statue was erected in Gladstone's lifetime (this is unusual for such a statue) and paid for by the proprietors of the local match factory. One story is that the girl employees believed that one shilling had been deducted from their wages to pay for it, and protested when it was unveiled, including cutting their arms so that their hands were bloody. Since then, the statue's hands have been daubed with red. In the foreground is ironwork for some closed public lavatories. Statue created by Albert Bruce-Joy

Bow Parish Church, London, E3
This, the parish church of St Mary and Holy Trinity, Bow is located on a long, slim, central reservation site in Bow Road (part of the A11). It was originally a chapel of ease built in 1311 but became a parish church, independent of St Dunstan and All Saints in Stepney, in 1719. Today it is the only surviving relic of a medieval village and former centre of a cottage industry founded on milling. Bow was first identified as Stratford in 1177 and then as Stratford atte Bowe, in 1279 to distinguish it from Stratford proper on the opposite, east side, of the River Lea. Bow comes from the Old English word “boga”, meaning bow, and refers to the arched bridge over the Lea. The bridge was originally built by Henry I’s wife Maud in the C12th to replace the crossing at Old Ford that had been established by the Romans.
