It's a must for East London locals and first-time visitors alike.

His documentary archive brings a past era to life and shows how much the working lives of Hackney - and the world over - have changed in the digital age. 'I grew up in a period when a lot of people were doing manual jobs. There was a huge amount of manufacturing going on in the borough, which helped to make it diverse and vibrant.'

Harlesden and Willesden has a rich history of multiculturalism. Roy Mehta's exquisite black and white photographs capture the daily rituals of its various communities, most notably the Black and Irish, engaged in seemingly simple activities at home, in the street and at church. Shot from 1989-1993, the images move from profound moments of faith to quiet moments at home and to the noisy streets outside and remind us that every moment is an opportunity for connection and reflection.
