Church of St Michael and All Angels, Bromley-by-Bow

[1] He was chosen to head the mission, and did so for five years, during which he built the church of All Hallows, at East India Docks.

[3] The church has an adjacent war memorial, made from Cornish granite and sculpted by Mr A. R. Adams.

The Imperial War Museum's archive describes the memorial as a "Figure of Christ with one hand raised in blessing and the other holding a wreath above the head of a kneeling warrior in the armour of a crusader.

"[4] The memorial was erected a short time after the First World War, and was unveiled by the future George VI (then Duke of York) on 4 December 1920, and dedicated in the same ceremony by Henry Mosley, Bishop of Stepney.

[5] Money for the memorial – £900 – was raised via "an appeal, a football match and tickets for a special matinee performance at the queen's theatre, high street on Saturday 24 April 1920".
