Former railway sidings crossing Henning Street. The brick viaduct in the foreground was the original approach to the Eastern Counties Railway's first London terminus at Bishopsgate, which became Bishiopsgate Goods Yard when Liverpool Street was opened in 1874. It closed in 1964 after a major fire. The approaches to Liverpool Street are carried on a parallel viaduct immediately behind.

Thursday 1st October 2015 - Bob's Park and the Bromley-by-Bow Centre.
The Centre opened in 1997, the first of its kind and a model for others to follow. It incorporates a Health Centre providing GP and NHS services, but the focus of the Centre is on living healthily and on helping people to take control of their own lives. The Centre also supports local social enterprises. Bob's Park, formerly the Bromley Recreation Ground and named after a popular local park-keeper of the 1990s, is now administered by the Centre and is a very child- and family-friendly park.

The Clock House of the old Black Eagle Brewery, Brick Lane, London E1.
Joseph Truman started brewing in Brick Lane in 1683. The brewery grew over the years and had buildings on both sides of Brick Lane. Expansion continued into the 20th Century, but brewing ceased in the 1980s and the buildings have now been put to a variety of uses including a conference centre, restaurants and bars.

The poppies at the Tower of London are an evolving art installation "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red", to mark the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War.
The first poppies were installed in the moat at the Tower on 5th August 2014 - 100 years to the day since Britain declared war on Germany - and the last will be installed on 11th November, the anniversary of the Armistice in 1918 which brought an end to the fighting. A total of 888,246 ceramic poppies will be laid, each on signifying a British military fatality during the War.
After 11th November the poppies will be removed and sold off to raise money for six charities which support serving and former services personnel, and their families.
