Many windowed houses, Gray Avenue
These houses date from an age when heat loss from the structure was not a consideration. Both floors of each house have full width windows to the front. In fact, the windowed area exceeds the width of the house because of the period penchant for bay windows.

Block of shops, Whalebone Lane, Becontree Heath
With a small nod to the 'Streamline Moderne' evolution of Art Deco in an otherwise mundane frontage. Just fiddly for the glazier if you break a window. The whole block is now a vets.

Whalebone Lane South - the pedestrian view
An important local route, that together with roads of other names on the same rather straight alignment formed an ancient northbound highway from a former Thames ferry at Dagenham. This part together with Whalebone Lane North was named after whale bones situated at a toll house - for the story see http://www.lbbd.gov.uk/MuseumsAndHeritage/ValenceHouseMuseum/Pages/WhaleboneGallery.aspx

Dagenham: The Ship & Anchor, Becontree Heath
This is The Ship & Anchor public house as most definitely closed (bricked up, not boarded up, ground floor windows for example) in June 2016.
Elsewhere on the internet is a description of the pub giving the names of all the occupants as of each Census from 1851 to 1911.
Unfortunately the pub is not present on any of the old large scale Ordnance Survey maps available on line, up to and including that of 1920. The building first appears as an unnamed PH on the map of 1938, and then appears as the "Hope & Anchor" PH in 1960 and 1961. Only in the 1990 edition does it show as the "Ship & Anchor".
The road in front is the A124 Wood Lane.
