The area was home to prison reformer Elizabeth Fry, who lived in Plashet House from 1809 to 1829, and also her daughter Katherine who lived in Plashet Cottage. Both of these properties were demolished in the 1880s to make way for the terraced streets that now characterise the area.[1]

Steve Marriott lead singer of the Small Faces was born at East Ham Memorial Hospital located in the Plashet area.

The poet Benjamin Zephaniah has also lived in Plashet.[1]
