The neighbourhood features a mix of post-war social housing estates and some older terraced housing, with pockets of industrial and commercial use along its edges. Green space is provided by the expansive Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, a historic Victorian burial ground now managed as a nature reserve.

The area is directly served by Bromley-by-Bow Underground station on the District and Hammersmith & City lines. Local life focuses on St Leonard's Street, which hosts essential shops and services. The presence of the House Mill, an 18th-century tidal mill on the River Lea, speaks to the area's industrial past along its eastern boundary with the waterway.
