Tanner Street Barking – Peter Barber
August 17th, 2011
More cogwheel toothed grey rendered pseudo Mediterranean terraced housing by Barber. Like Donnybrook it also has next to no defensible space for the most part.

UPDATE: 17th August 2015 – Guardian -> No change then
Some respectable architecture aside, it is a shaming place.
Following the arrival of my London Open House brochure I sauntered off to Barking along the District line to Barking station and took the 387 out to Barking Riverside. (Actually I decided to walk and got lost but that’s another story). If you know what you’re doing you can walk out of Barking Station, cross the road to stand H and get on the 387, Oyster card in hand.
