Polygon Buildings
Following the demolition of the Polygon, and prior to the construction of Oakshott Court in 1974, 4 tenement type blocks of flats were built on the site at Clarendon Sq/Phoenix Rd called Polygon Buildings. These were primarily for people working for the Midland Railway and subsequently British Rail. My family lived for 5 years in Block C in the 1950s. It seems that very few photos exist of these buildings.

Road construction and houses completed
New Charleville Circus road layout shown on Stanford’s Library Map Of London And Its Suburbs 1879 with access via West Hill only.

Plans showing street numbering were recorded in 1888 so we can concluded the houses in Charleville Circus were built by this date.

War damage reinstatement plans of No’s 11 & 13 Aldine Street
Whilst clearing my elderly Mothers house of general detritus, I’ve come across original plans (one on acetate) of No’s 11 & 13 Aldine Street. Might they be of interest or should I just dispose of them? There are 4 copies seemingly from the one single acetate example. Seems a shame to just junk them as the level of detail is exquisite. No worries if of no interest, but thought I’d put it out there.

East Ham - a small country station among green fields (1900) In 1858 the London, Tilbury and Southend Railway opened its line from Bow to Barking with stations at Plaistow Road and at East Ham. The engineer was George Parker Bidder and Samuel Morton Peto was the contractor. Other stations were built at Upton Park (1877) and West Ham (Manor Road) in 1901. This view looks towards Barking. Originally, there had been a level crossing carrying the High Street across the two tracks. Sibley Grove (formerly Jews Farm Lane) would be to the left and what was to became Burges, Southend and Stevenage Roads are yet to be built on the south side. Originally, there had been a level crossing at the Upton Park end of the platforms, where the tracks crossed White Post Lane. As East Ham developed and traffic increased, a road bridge was built. The Lane was renamed High Street North.

The Premier Cinema, East Ham (1936) The cinema was renamed the Gaumont in 1952 and closed as a cinema in 1963. It reopened as a Top Rank Club for bingo, later renamed Mecca, which closed in 2005. In spite of being a fine example of an early cinema, it was never designated listed status and was demolished in 2009.
