𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐍 𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐗 𝐖𝐀𝐋𝐊 | Romford Town East London Essex Tour - 845Years Old Town in London

"It's Lond-Essex" 😂 Romford's history is a story of a changed identity. Originally under the umbrella of Essex, it all changed 60 years ago when on 1 April 1965 the local government map of London was set, with the establishment of the 32 boroughs that still exist today. As part of this, Romford changed from being part of Essex and instead became a part of the borough of Havering. Although it is officially in Greater London, some residents told the BBC they feel their identity resides in Essex.
