About

Lansbury ward lies in the eastern part of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, situated north of Poplar and directly south of the Limehouse Cut canal. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of post-war housing estates, low-rise terraces, and modern apartment developments. Its street grid and housing were significantly shaped by the post-war reconstruction and the 1951 Festival of Britain, which showcased the Lansbury Estate as a model 'live architecture' exhibit.

The ward is anchored by Chrisp Street Market, a covered market that has operated for decades and serves as a focal community hub. Green space is provided by the historic Poplar Recreation Ground. Transport connections are central, with the Docklands Light Railway stations of Langdon Park and All Saints providing direct links into the City and Canary Wharf, reflecting the area's integration into wider East London.
