Advantages: Market, shopping, fun!

Disadvantages: reputation

As a youngster, my grandparents lived near Romford and so i visited the town quite regularly. To be honest, in that time it really hasn''t changed much in terms of its appeal and facilities (although these are, i have to say, constantly kept reviewed and updated)... which is no bad thing in my opinion!

Romford is a large town that is still just about in Essex, though the greater London border seems to be spreading and may soon swallow Romford up!

Romford always has been, and still is, fantastic for shopping. There is a massive range of shops in the main shopping centre that in my opinion you could not leave empty handed and you would be sure to find what you are looking for somewhere!

I would think though, Romford has to be most famous for its market this really is what a real market should be and makes for a great place to shop and bag a bargain!,It boast some amazing stalls and the sheer number of stalls (must be in well excess of 200 ) provide the most amazing array of goods, from fresh produce such as veg, meat and fish, to clothes and accessories to general goods.

Romford also boast the Coral greyhound Stadium which is great fun for a night out. it has a restaurant so you can watch the races in style as well as fast food to take out so you can eat at the track side. its a great place for a flutter!

I don''t think Romford will ever escape its label of being the home of a certain type..... but what is wrong with that? Romford is fun and vibrant and long shall it remain so!

Summary: Its a great old market!!!
