Aldborough
Redbridge, London
Aldborough covers the far north-east of Redbridge, including Aldborough Hatch and the long green corridor to Fairlop Waters. The character is outer suburban stretching into near-rural green belt on the northern side. Green space is the dominant feature at over one hundred and thirty-six hectares, anchored by the one-hundred-and-twelve-hectare Fairlop Waters Country Park. Heritage for such an outer ward is decent: twelve listings include the Grade II* Dr Barnardo's Memorial at the former Barnardo's girls' village and the Grade II Church of St Peter and Aldborough Hatch Chapel. Air quality is strong. The drawbacks are heavy. Culture scores very low at nine, reflecting the thin food and non-food tally (thirty-one and twenty-one); there are no Ofsted-outstanding schools within real catchment; public transport is moderate, with Fairlop and Hainault on the Central line at the edges but slow links to central London; and crime sits close to the London middle. This is a ward for open land rather than amenity.
