Outer East London A Broad Rental Market Area is an area ‘within which a person could reasonably be expected to live having regard to facilities and services for the purposes of health, education, recreation, personal banking and shopping, taking account of the distance of travel, by public and private transport, to and from those facilities and services.’ A BRMA must contain ‘residential premises of a variety of types, including such premises held on a variety of tenures’, plus ‘sufficient privately rented residential premises, to ensure that, in the rent officer’s opinion, the LHA for the area is representative of the rents that a landlord might reasonably be expected to obtain in that area’. [Legislation - Rent Officers (Housing Benefit Functions) Amendment (No.2) Order 2008] OUTER EAST LONDON Broad Rental Market Area (BRMA) implemented on 1st October 2009 Map of the BRMA Overview of the BRMA The above map shows Stratford, Walthamstow, Leyton, West Ham, East Ham and their surroundings within a boundary marked in red. Predominantly residential, the BRMA measures approximately nine miles from north to south and about four miles from east to west. As Stratford will host the Olympic Games in 2012, investment is currently underway to bring commercial, employment and transport improvements to the area. Docklands is located further south and contains City Airport and the Excel Centre. Docklands is a business district of significance and of importance for the country as a whole. This BRMA is situated in Transport for London Zone 3. Public transport is plentiful with four underground lines connecting in all directions, supplemented by an overground rail system connecting Walthamstow to Stratford and then eastwards towards Leytonstone. In the south of the BRMA, the Docklands Light Railway connects places from east to west. Well served by a network of major road arteries, numerous bus routes emanate from Stratford in all directions throughout the BRMA. Identification of Health, Education, Recreation, Banking and Shopping (HERBS) The above map shows how the facilities and services (HERBS) are distributed. They are spread fairly evenly through the BRMA with particular concentrations Stratford, Walthamstow, West Ham and East Ham. Accessibility to facilities and services Distance Time by By Car (based on the Time Time By Time By Remarks From To Car quickest rather than By Bus Train Tube (where applicable) the shortest route) Walthamstow Stratford 15 4.3 47 - 14 Leyton Stratford 6 1.8 5 - 3 Manor Park Stratford 11 2.9 19 - 6 East Ham Stratford 11 3 36 - 22 Canning Town Stratford 10 2.4 22 - 9 Leytonstone Stratford 8 2.3 25 - 7 West Ham Stratford 3 1 12 - 3 Canning Town Beckton 11 2.9 30 13 Includes a combination of tube and train.

Journeys are under an hour, demonstrating the reasonableness of accessibility to the main facilities and services. By implication the table also indicates that journeys to and from nearer destinations are also reasonable.

The other figures show sub categories. The table demonstrates that the BRMA contains a variety of types of residential premises and that they are held on a variety of tenures. Note: The table was compiled by matching the Office of National Statistics 2001 Census data as closely as possible to the BRMA map boundary. Sufficient Privately Rented Premises The table shows 29,015 privately rented premises in the BRMA. We would expect to collect approximately 15% of the private rented sector market; this would be about 4,352 pieces of lettings information to include on our list of rents. This is considered sufficient privately rented residential premises to ensure that, in the Rent Officer’s opinion, the Local Housing Allowance for tenancies in the area is representative of the rents that a landlord might reasonably be expected to obtain in that area. .

  • EMD Theater 186 Hoe Street, London E17
    Property and Asset Management Director – Commercial Estate & Investment: Freddie Murray Magistrates Building, Waltham Forest Town Hall Complex, 1A Farnan Avenue, Walthamstow, E17 4NX EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST: Commercial Units A, B & C, EMD Theatre, 186 Hoe Street, London E17 4QH Artist’s Impression of Hoe Street Frontage DESCRIPTION: The site comprises a Grade II* listed super cinema, recognised to be of national significance as a rare surviving example of the extravagant and flamboyant work of the Granada Group, their famed architect, Cecil Aubrey Masey, and interior designer, Theodore Komisarjevsky, at the height of the cinema boom of the 1930s. The building is loved by local people, who have campaigned relentlessly and in large numbers for about 15 years for it to be restored as an entertainment venue. In an innovative partnership with Soho Theatre, the EMD cinema will be transformed into a 950-seat theatre, bar and restaurant, community space, and more. The £25m investment into the venue’s revival is part of the Council’s London Borough of Culture legacy commitment to place culture at the heart of its communities. Soho Theatre’s wide-ranging programme will be announced towards the end of 2021. It is set to feature some of the biggest names in UK and international comedy as well as an annual pantomime and special events (from music to screenings and performance) alongside dedicated community, education and schools’ programmes. The venue will open in spring 2022 and is expected to become a magnet for visitors wanting to experience world-class culture in the borough, helping to boost the local evening and night-time economy and support our existing businesses.

  • Walthamstow the Members of the Brigade Have Been Represented at an Inquiry Held Following Public Criticism ; and Elsewhere Membe
    38 Walthamstow the members of the brigade have been represented at an inquiry held following public criticism ; and elsewhere members have been represented in cases of a disciplinary character. Abortive efforts have been made at Croydon and Ilford for the establishment of the Two-Shift System, these being areas rather reactionary in character ; also at Willesden we are giving attention to the present scheme of duty; and at Dagenham we have secured the Two-Shift System of a proper basis of twelve-hour shifts (or equivalent ) with weekly leave day instead of the 24 hours about system with no leave day. Unfortunately this brigade has been exceedingly difficult to organise, and our present membership there is exceedingly low. Represen­ tations Were made at East Ham with regard to the pay of men engaged on special duties of Gamewell Fire Alarms, as to unappointed motor drivers being required to drive brigade vehicles and objecting to inclusion in a joint staff committee. At Wallsend an increase in pay of 7s. 6d. a Week for firemen was gained. At Bedwellty (Mon.) small increases in pay have been secured, but at Gellygaer we have been faced with this new type of committee. It has made its appearance also at Tottenham. In character this committee consists broadly of one-half representatives of the Council and one-half representing the employees ; and while in one case it is claimed that it not intended in any way to affect the ordinary Trade Union negotiation, yet in others it does appear to be calculated to form a buffer between the Trade Union and the Local Authority.
