Civic Centre, Rainham Road North (1)
Built in 1936-37 by E. Berry Webber with F.C. Lloyd, the Borough Engineer. A striking building which borrows from classical architecture - the portico, its symmetry and use of brick - but which is most definitely also "go-ahead and modern" (Pevsner). Grade II listed.
It serves as the main building of the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.

Civic Centre, Rainham Road North (2)
Built in 1936-37 by E. Berry Webber with F.C. Lloyd, the Borough Engineer. A striking building which borrows from classical architecture - the portico, its symmetry and use of brick - but which is most definitely also "go-ahead and modern" (Pevsner). You can't see from the picture, but the panels in the frieze represent Engineering, Local Government and Navigation. Grade II listed.
It serves as the main building of the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, whose proud boast can be seen above the portico. A wider view can be found here Image

Schools, Dagenham
Robert Clack School on the left, All Saints Catholic School on the right. But carefully segregated to avoid cross-contamination, as far as I can make out. The tower blocks are flats some way beyond.

The very strange golf driving range at Wantz Lake
Wantz Lake is a circular artificial lake on the upper reaches of the Wantz Stream. It serves as a balancing reservoir to control flooding further downstream.
It also features in a golf driving range although I would imagine the majority of balls must end up in the lake. A high net on the far side is to stop the golf balls ending up hitting the houses beyond although one would imagine many balls hitting the netting would also end up in the lake!

Dagenham Civic Centre
Dagenham Civic Centre is an art deco building dating from the mid-1930s. It is Grade II listed.
In 2017, Coventry University opened its CU London campus here, taking over the original building. It appears that the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham still use offices on the site.
