Oldchurch Hospital is due for closure in the next month and is likely to be demolished soon after. Many buildings date from the early part of the 20th century and this and other photographs will provide a record of this long established hospital. See[[26362]] for the new hospital

Town planners seem to love zoning and Romford Town centre is a prime example. This shot of Eastern Road shows the area designated for offices - hence its local nickname.

Part of the ring road - looking south towards Victoria Road. The railway bridge is for the East Anglia-Liverpool Street lines.

The 1881 Ordnance Survey 6" to the mile map does indeed show both a flour mill and a water mill between Victoria Road and the parallel railway behind it. As with [[905910]] which is opposite it would be interesting to know who the original occupiers of these shops were. For the record in July 2008 they are, from right to left: T. M Nails Belvoir Estate Agents Feedwell Sandwich Bar Balgores Letting Agency Dixy Chicken Old Mill Cafe

Dist:0.1km<br/>A busy scene in central Romford. Traffic on this road has reduced significantly as a result of pedestrianisation from Exchange Street on the opposite side of the railway. The British Railways sign-writing visible on the bridge advertises frequent electric train services and dates back to the electrification of the line from Liverpool Street in 1960.
