The Fire Bell Gate
Almost all that remains of the old Abbey buildings is this, the Curfew Tower or Fire Bell Gate (rebuilt about 1460), with its 12th or early 13th-century stone rood in the upper storey chapel. It stands next to St. Margaret's church and was once surrounded by old buildings that have since been demolished.

Abbey Industrial Estate
This industrial estate lies beside the River Roding in Barking, next to the historic Abbey and Town Quay. Is this the best form of regeneration for this site?

Barking: St Margaret's Church
The Church was built in the grounds of St Mary's Abbey, which was founded by Benedictine Nuns around 666, but dissolved by Henry VIII in 1541. Captain James Cook married Elizabeth Batts in the Church on 21 December 1762. The building in front of the Church is the St Margaret's Centre. The Church appears to have a website here http://www.saintmargarets.org.uk/ although the link was not working when the photo was uploaded.

Tomb in St Margaret's Churchyard
This tomb has unusual wording referring to John Martin being "given" July 19th 1881 and "taken" January 7th 1885. The side to the right has a completely different set of names referring to losses by drowning, including two at sea some seventy years earlier - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4860971
