TalkHistoryFree

At V&A East Storehouse.

Shahed Saleem wrote the first proper account of the British mosque - not the handful of grand purpose-built ones but the hundreds of converted houses, chapels, warehouses and pubs where most British Muslims actually pray, and the architecture that results when a community builds with what it can afford.

At the Storehouse, the V&A's open store, where the collection is on shelves rather than in cases.
