Walthamstow Past

In the early 19th century, Walthamstow was described as 'the largest and handsomest surburban village near the metropolis'. Bordered by the river Lea on the west and Epping Forest on the east, it had many fine villas. The railway and industrial development in the Lea Valley changed it. Housing multiplied rapidly in an uncontrolled sprawl. In this new history, the author reminds us of the many splendours there were and are. Personalities include William Morris, who resided there and whose house is a museum, Clement Attlee and the young Sex Pistols.
