London Borough of Havering, Administrative district in Outer London, England

Located in East London, Havering spans over 112 square kilometers with Romford serving as its primary commercial and administrative center.

The district emerged in 1965 through the merger of the Municipal Borough of Romford and Hornchurch Urban District, transferring from Essex to Greater London.

The Liberty Shopping Centre and Mercury Mall in Romford form a retail network, with Romford Market operating as the principal trading venue.

The district connects to central London via the District line of London Underground and the Elizabeth line through stations at Romford and Harold Wood.

The area formerly contained Havering Palace, which functioned as a royal residence during Edward the Confessor's reign in the 11th century.
