About Ilford

Ilford is a town in north east London and the administrative centre of the London Borough of Redbridge. Located in what was traditionally considered to be part of the English county of Essex, Ilford grew as a commercial centre largely as a result of its position along the main road route between London and Colchester. Its commercial importance increased further with the introduction of the railways to London and the south east of England in the 19th century. Today, Ilford is a thriving, multicultural and extremely active part of suburban London and Redbridge. The town lies immediately east of the River Roding and the North Circular, and is close to a number of well-known and equally active parts of east London such as Barking, Romford, East Ham and Upton Park.
