Our exhibition tells the story of home in Canning Town through the 1950s to 1970s, from Victorian Terraced houses, to high-rise flats.
"In the 60s the building sites regenerated and new houses were built, but most of the Victorian houses were the main structures throughout. There weren’t any tall buildings until the blocks of flats they did away with after one fell down." - John
