About

Elm Park ward is a residential district in the eastern part of the London Borough of Havering. It is situated to the south of Hornchurch, with the A125 road forming a key route through the area. The housing largely consists of interwar and post-war semi-detached and terraced homes, built following the opening of the London Underground station in 1935. The ward contains several local shopping parades catering to daily needs.

The area is served by its eponymous station on the District line, providing a direct rail connection into central London. The built environment is primarily low-rise, with a mix of private and social housing. Community life centres around local schools, places of worship, and the library located on the precinct near the station.
