| Object history | St Mary's Haggerston was designed by John Nash and built in 1827. It was destroyed by bombs in World War II and its site, between Thurtle Road and Queensbridge Road, is now occupied by a children's playground. This object was part of the John Edmund Gardner collection of topographical prints and drawings of London. After Gardner's death the collection passed to his son Edmund Thomas, but was sold to Edward Coates MP in 1910. The collection was sold again in 1923 after Coates' death, and was split between various institutions and private collectors. The portion connected with Hoxton, Homerton, Hackney and Bethnal Green was bought by the Hon. Arthur Villiers and donated to the Bethnal Green Museum. |
