Margaret House - an original section of the Caroline Estate built in the early twentieth-century.

The London County Council extended the estate in 1953.

In the background, you can see a tall red-brick building with prominent chimneys. This was another housing estate, which was owned and run by the Peabody Trust. Previously, the site had been home to the Convent of the Good Shepherd, which closed in 1920.
