Ilford, Metropolitan center in East London, England

The town extends along both sides of the River Roding, featuring residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and multiple green spaces including Valentines Park and South Park.

Originally emerging as a Saxon settlement, Ilford transformed from a small rural village into a major suburban district following the arrival of railway connections in 1839.

The Kenneth More Theatre presents regular performances while the Redbridge Museum displays local artifacts spanning from Saxon times through the present day.

The Exchange Ilford shopping center contains numerous retail stores and restaurants, serving as the primary commercial destination for residents of the London Borough of Redbridge.

Pioneer Point, consisting of two residential towers reaching 105 and 82 meters in height, stands as the tallest development in the London Borough of Redbridge.
