About

Havering-atte-Bower is a ward defined by its elevated rural character on the northern edge of London. The area centres on the historic village green and the former site of Havering Palace, offering expansive views over the surrounding Essex countryside. It contains significant tracts of protected Green Belt land, including Bedfords Park, a large area of woodland and pasture with a deer enclosure and a visitor centre. The settlement pattern is characterised by dispersed, often substantial, residential properties set along winding lanes.

The community retains a distinct village atmosphere, separate from the more urban centres of the borough. Local life focuses on the parish church, the village hall, and the traditional pub near the green. The area's history is evident in its older buildings and the preserved moat of the vanished royal palace. This combination of open landscapes, historical resonance, and a low-density residential feel defines its identity within Greater London.
