View of the Karamsar Gurdwara from High Road, Ilford
Easily the most elegant building on this whole stretch of road! If you look closely, you can see it's strung with blue LED lights, which I think it is all year round. Looking south-southeast.

Blossom in Buckingham Road Cemetery
Ilford Burial Board, established in 1880, laid out Buckingham Road Cemetery as an extension of the burial ground of St Mary the Virgin Great Ilford and initially the cemetery was known as Great Ilford Cemetery. It had its own chapel. The first burial took place on 4th September 1881.
In the background is St Mary the Virgin Church, Great Ilford. St Mary the Virgin is the old parish church of Ilford. It was built between 1829 and 1831. The chancel dates from 1920. The building of a new parish church at Ilford was under discussion in 1823 although the division of the parish of Barking was first proposed in 1650. Due to strong opposition it did not get built until 1830 when the new ecclesiastical parish of Great Ilford was created. The parish churchyard of St Mary the Virgin, Great Ilford is now closed to new burials, but has a collection of early century headstones. In 1863 the Vicar's wish to extend the churchyard was opposed by some parishioners. Today it adjoins Buckingham Road Cemetery.

View of a cart and two barrels above Oberza cafe on High Road, Ilford
Oberza has only opened very recently, as it is called "7even" in the Google Streetview from November 2012: https://goo.gl/maps/FSGV7aFB3xPG6M2U7 . The barrels have been there for about two years but the cart is a recent addition. Looking north-northwest.

Great Ilford: St Mary the Virgin
The main part of the church was built between 1829 and 1831 to the designs of James Savage, while the tower was added in 1866 as a memorial to John and Elizabeth Davis. One historic image that the photographer found elsewhere on the internet http://genpals.co.uk/blog/st-marys-church-ilford/ shows that the tower once supported a steeple about two-thirds its own size. Although it is Locally Listed, perhaps surprisingly it is not a Listed Building on the English Heritage National List.
The church is set firmly in the Catholic Tradition of the Church of England. Its website is here http://www.stmarysilford.org.uk/welcome.htm and its Facebook page is here http://www.facebook.com/pages/St-Mary-the-Virgin-Great-Ilford/182897041730580
