According to Historic Buildings in Bromley-by-Bow (http://www.kingsleyhall.freeuk.com/bromleybybow.htm):

St Catherine's Convent, 181 Bow Rd

Founded in 1866 with the Church of Our Lady with St Catherine's built as a chapel that would become the main Catholic church in the area. The nuns left during the War and the nunnery is now used by artists and includes a downstairs exhibition space.
