Site: All Saints Haggerston - WWI memorial (1 memorial)

E8, Haggerston Road, All Saints Church

This church, built 1856, was initially known as All Saints, Stonebridge but we've seen it referred to as All Saints, Haggerston, and also All Saints, Dalston. This church and Holy Trinity, Dalston were united as one parish in 1997, now called Trinity Saints United. All Saints is also known as the Clown's Church - see Grimaldi for the reason.  And see Haggerston Road School for two of the vicars of this church.
