105 Barking Road, Grade II listed Victorian public hall in Canning Town, United Kingdom
The former public hall at 105 Barking Road features an Italianate architectural style with stained glass windows and a mosaic terrazzo floor design.
Constructed between 1892 and 1894 by architect Lewis Angell, the building served as a central meeting place for suffragette and labor movements in East London.
The hall provided a platform for influential speakers including Sylvia Pankhurst and James Keir Hardie who addressed workers rights and social reform issues.
Currently functioning as the headquarters of Community Links charity, the building offers spaces for community events and training workshops after its 1993 renovation.
During the North Sea Flood of 1953, the building transformed into emergency accommodation for local residents affected by the natural disaster.
