        History

        The parish church of Saint Dunstan in the East, Idol Lane, was built during the second half of the 13th century. The main body of the church survived the Great Fire, but the tower and steeple had to be rebuilt by Christopher Wren. The church was rebuilt in the early 19th century when it was discovered that the roof had forced the medieval nave out of line. It was bombed and mostly destroyed during the Second World War, however the tower and nave walls have been restored and the site turned into a garden. The parish was united to All Hallows Barking (P69/ALH1) in 1960.
