I been living here for 16 years and i strongly recommend that you should look at other options before coming here.My number one reason is that knife crime is very high here I have seen men with knifes and the police always trying to stop these crimes.The recent knife crime has been on December 2017 it happened in a conour shop called mini market it was a drug dealing incident.The second reasons is the thief's and gangs,recently my oyster card and money had been stolen at leytonstone leisure center this was my fault for not locking my locker so I would advise you to be very careful. The third reason is the people are very rude and gross.The people who live here for example drug dealers and hobos who piss on the streets its very disgusting.
But where was it? Was it on the Trumpington site?
Do anyone remember me from leytonestone in the 1960/1970s and I went to Davis lane school and mayvill school and to Connaught school as well then we moved to Hornchurch Essex I lived in woodlands road leytonstone.

hi all you old leytonstone people, just going through some sites regarding leytonstone and came across this one (looks interesting) there have been some interest in bearmans of leytonstone,my old dad used to work there for around 20 odd years in the mid 1960s untill he took early retirement in the mid 1980s. he really did like working there he said it was a special department store their slogen was "a west end store in the east end" he was there when it was demolished and the co-op took over but it was never the same thats why he took early retirement. the store started in the late 1880s i have a lot of old interesting documents,photo's and brochures somewhwere (dads been dead for 18 years)it really was a great store, i often wonder what happened to the bearmans family?
!927 Beechcroft Road I was born. At the High Road end was Coombes Brother Pawnbrokers, round the corner was a butchers with an abattoir at the back. Every now and then cattle from Wanstead Flats used to be driven along my road on the way to being a Sunday Roast. Opposite was "Evans" a forerunner of the Supermarket but only for groceries and dairy produce. A little way along toward the Green Man pub was the Fire Station and a Blacksmith. A lot of local delivery traffic such as Nevilles Bakery and the coal man was horsedrawn. Street buskers were not uncommon; my favourite was a married couple, the wife played a barrel organ while her husband played the spoons. Davies Lane Infants; Cann Hall Juniors then Leyton County High. Montague Mission Sunday School. Well remember the Rialto, mentioned in a previous post, and the "Rialto Rangers" Our secret 'password' was 'Regnar' And our motto was "Serve and always wear a smile." I once won the weekly prize for having the biggest smile in

Hi everyone. I just moved to Leytonstone area recently. I am an artist specialized in children's wall murals for bedrooms and games rooms. So if you think about customizing a room and keep costs down for renovation just send me an email at
Yes, this sounds really good and I'd be interested. Love books and a book club in a pub sounds like a great idea. Has anything been scheduled?

Hi, trying to get in touch with anyone who went to Cardinal Wiseman Junior High School between 1973-75. I remember a few students Leslie Gosnell, Elizabeth Warden (BB), Andrew Taylor and Sylvia O'Neil.
I attended during that period and lived close by at #10 Station Road before returning to the Caribbean.
Regards

I went to Rosina Pulley school of dance around the middle to late sixties. Also remember a dancing assistant called Sylvia.

I left in 1966/67 and believe Kingston Road was demolished soon after.
I have a few of photos taken in the street, including a couple of the street party for the Coronation.
I remember the Fisher, Brookes, Sharp, and Craske families. There were also a brother and sister - Norman and Sandra, but their surname escapes me at the moment.
Did you live in Kingston Road?
Yes the bottom half of Cobbold Road is now gone. Nevilles Bakery used to be there. I lived at no. 58 in the 60's. All those houses were pulled down to expand Tom Hood School, not sure it was ever done.

I once lived in one of the bedsitters in this house, from 1985 to 1990. I had a large room and shared the house with a few others, most of them elderly, some of them a bit strange! I can't say I enjoyed my time there. The landlord at the time was a Mr Ritter. There was a cellar which I used to go down sometimes, which had various stuff being stored. It was a bit spooky, I have to say. The whole house was atmospheric, it has to be said. However, I wasn't aware of its history until what I read here. But while I was living there, the house next door, 85a, which was also owned by the same landlord, had a murder. A gay man who lived there was murdered. It must have been sometime between about 1987 and 1989. I don't have particularly fond memories of that place.
You must have been at Lakehouse at the same time as me. I left in 1963 I too remember his fascinating tales and as a result learnt little French, which is what we supposed to be learning!!!

Obviously Father Budgeon is dead. What about the house Mothers. If i could contact them that would be amazing. Mum has lots od unanswered questions about her home life, maybe they could answer some of them . Thank you so much for replying. I am so grateful.
I do apologise but for some reason have only just found your message. do mum and auntie have any stories regarding the home? I know dad and his siblings had 2 weeks in the workhouse in Bethnal Green prior to admission. I also am aware that a Father Budgen became the headmaster at some stage and made some changes, he married one of the house mothers and we met up with them some years ago after he retired to Devon.

Go there often, still the cheapest meal around, lovely liquor, pies are not as good as the old days (real steak and kidney) but they are still tasty and the mash is the best around.
compared to the infested takeaways like in Leyton High road. On the BBC news a little while ago!
Years ago approx. 1966 there was a secluded spot not far from whips x roundabout. It was a regular spot for courting couples, and one evening my husband and I were walking through the forest when we became aware of someone behind us, about 10/14ft away stood a very tall man wearing a high hat and long coat or cloak. We were both unnaturally ill at ease, and made our way as quickly as we could back to our car.
Many years later when speaking about this to a work colleague my husband was told that the person had had the same experience the previous evening, so I wondered is there any information about this ghostly figure.
I run a yoga class at the Quaker Meeting House on Bush Road, Leytonstone.

Hey,
I came across your post and was interested in joining the potential new book club you were looking to start. How's it going? Have you got any other members interested or signed up? And any ideas of what to read?
I've never joined a book club before but something informal (and pub-based) sounds pretty good!

Does anyone remember the cosey cafe next to the fire station in the early sixties and the cafe in leytonstone high road near cathall rd used by the teddy boys in the sixties
I thought it was Davis Lane School.
And I think it was Rosina Pulley, but not 100 percent.
My Sister Barbara Carrett went there in the 50's too.
Cathall road swimming baths. Where us girls could meet up with the boys. And we went there with the school for swimming lessons too. We used to buy a 1 penny arrowroot biscuit to eat on the way home.
interested in this. did it get going? mail me on
A few of the original buildings still remain. Also, there are some photos/drawings outside the main Tesco entrance.
Has anyone any information or photos relating to Leytonstone Childrens home. My father and his siblings were placed in the home in 1926 as my grandmother was trying to cope with cancer. I have found a few photos on the internet as I believe it has now been turned into a Tesco but would like to know more.
Many thanks Pat Henderson -
The cinema next to Bearmans was the Rialto and at Saturday morning pictures we used to sing about being the Rialto Rangers and it used to cost 6d (old money) to get in.
