The character of Forest Gate
Romford Road is the area's main artery, carrying buses and through traffic toward Stratford in one direction and Manor Park in the other. The Woodgrange Estate's Victorian streets are calmer and largely residential, with better standing space than the main road. Wanstead Flats borders the southern edge, with no vehicle access beyond the surrounding streets.
