The first photographic history of Gants Hill

Gants Hill, a suburb of the London Borough of Redbridge, Essex, has long been a thriving community and shopping area, all centred around the famous and, at times, difficult to negotiate roundabout. Home to the iconic Moscow Metro-inspired underground station, Gants Hill is thirty-five minutes east of Oxford Circus on the Central Line. There are schools, offices, colleges, businesses, entertainment venues, religious centres, a library, and the beautiful Valentines Park, which stretches from Gants Hill to Ilford town centre.

Let expert local historians Vincent Goodman and Jef Page take you on a journey with over 180 carefully selected photographs and images of Gants Hill, illustrating how it has developed over the years. The book is the first collection of its kind to be published specifically on Gants Hill and includes a comprehensive history of the area.

“The book is neatly divided into section covering streets and roads, buildings, houses, and schools. If you remember Gants Hill with affection than this is a book you will treasure.”
