Rev. G.A. How Memorial Gate (17th Century)

Memorial erected in 1894. Tragically during the bombing raid in the Second World War Blitz of 1941, the St Leonard Priory church took a direct hit and was completely destroyed. Then in 1969, the Blackwall Tunnel Northern Approach Road was built over most of the former site of the convent and church, leaving just a small area of overgrown Huguenot graves and a memorial gate to the one-time Parish Rector Rev. G. A. How.
