About

Bow East covers a portion of the Bow district, situated north of the A11 Bow Road. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of social housing estates and Victorian terraced streets. The Greenway, a pedestrian and cycle path built on top of a sewer, cuts directly through the ward, providing a distinctive elevated route across East London.

The local landscape is marked by the presence of the towering former Bryant & May match factory chimney, a prominent industrial relic. The ward includes parts of the Roman Road market area, known for its everyday stalls. Bow Creek forms a section of the western boundary, with the surrounding low-rise housing offering views towards the more densely built Canary Wharf skyline to the south.
