This pleasant cycle will take you around Gidea Park, Romford's Garden Suburb, founded in 1911 and inspired by Ebenezer Howard's Garden City movement. Many of the houses that are found in the Garden Suburb today are 'exhibition homes'; in 1911 a competition was held to provide high quality architecturally designed homes. Over 100 leading architects of the day designed homes for the competition, which were FROM havering museum TO raphael park executed in an Arts and Crafts style; many of the houses and cottages are reminiscent of vernacular buildings in their form and detailing.

Aims, objectives and outcomes COVER IMAGES Clockwise from top: Children’s athletics at Hornchurch stadium; adult arts at Fairkytes Arts Centre; Harold Wood Library, one of ten libraries in Havering; wildflower meadow created by Havering Parks on Queen’s Theatre Green 2 A NEW CULTURE STRATEGY FOR HAVERING 2019-22 Executive Summary The new Culture Strategy for Havering is a framework that will inform future directions for culture and cultural activities in Havering. Previously, although there has been significant cultural activity within Havering, there has not been an up-to-date strategic context within which the diverse provision and opportunities that exist can sit. Culture touches upon many peoples’ lives in Havering and significantly contributes to the quality of life and health and well-being of residents and visitors to our borough. The Culture Strategy is fundamental to meeting the needs of the wider community. The strategy has been developed through a five part consultation process: 1. A series of seven public workshops held in venues across the borough. 2. A number of one-to-one meetings with representatives of individual organisations and stakeholders across the borough. 3. An online consultation questionnaire which the public responded to, developed in consultation with the new Cultural Stakeholders advisory group and promoted through social media and partner organisations.

Appendix 1 Havering Local Studies & Family History
APPENDIX 1 HAVERING LOCAL STUDIES & FAMILY HISTORY CENTRE 2010/2011 Prepared by The Local History Librarian, Havering Library Service. Havering’s Local Studies and Family History Centre opened to the public in the refurbished Central Library in July 2011. Local Studies is a long established aspect of the library service's provision and is a significant strand in the fulfilment of the Public Libraries and Museums Act. This service has been part of the Reference Library Service offered in the Central Library and its predecessor Romford Library since 1930. The local artist Alfred Bennett Bamford donated a significant collection of local books, maps, prints and drawings to the Romford Library in the 1930s. This print of one of his drawings shows Marshalls House 1889. Bamford’s collection is the foundation of the Local Studies and Family History Centre collection The refurbishment of the Central Library offered the opportunity to create a dedicated space for this service and the individuals and groups wishing to research the Havering area and their own family history. There are two staff, a Local History Librarian and a Family History Senior Library Assistant. The service is open to the public 36 hours per week including Saturdays and one late evening. Visitors to the library are able to browse a collection of key books about the Borough as well as a range of local history journals and an extensive collection of books dealing with specialist aspects of family history. Local newspapers back to 1866 and copies of parish registers for the area are available on microfilm. A subscription to Ancestry.com offers free access to a wide range of records of great interest to family and local historians, in particular Census returns between 1841 and 1901 and indexes to the General Registrar’s record of births, marriages and deaths since 1837.

5 Things to Do in Romford
Beyond London’s Olympics: 5 Things to Do in Romford By Patti Morrow With the crush of bodies infiltrating London for the 2012 Summer Olympics, residents and tourists alike will be looking for an easy escape from the frenzied city. Just a mere 20-minute train ride from Olympic Park at Stratford lies their respite: Romford, a vibrant suburban town in northeast London. Long recognized as a bedroom community of Greater London, Romford is considered an ideal location due to its close proximity to either the English countryside or the seacoast. Whether you’re strolling down the quintessential chains of Tudor row houses or chatting up a local Brit in a neighborhood pub, Romford is a haven for those who are seeking a glimpse of the “true English lifestyle.” 1. To market, to market. Open every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, the Romford Market, a colorful open-air street extravaganza, is one of the oldest markets in England, formed from a grant from King Henry III in 1247 A.D. More than 150 stalls hawking every kind of bargain – fresh produce, butchers and fishmongers, home-baked pasties, clothing, antiques, jewelry, flowers, music and tech gadgets – you name it, it’s there. Look for the giant Union Jack flag on the Tollgate House building at the end of the market. For those who prefer traditional indoor shopping, adjacent to the market is the Liberty Shopping Centre, and within a short walk is the Brewery Shopping Centre. 2. Go Greyhound. Spend a day at Romford Greyhound Stadium, winner of the 1998 and 2003 British Greyhound Racing Board's 'Racecourse of the Year' award, where you can simply be a spectator or place bets on the dogs as well as enjoy the various bars and restaurants.
