About

Leyton East is an inner-London ward in the London Borough of Waltham Forest, around the High Road and the streets to its east. The area is mainly residential, with rows of late-Victorian and Edwardian terraces, interspersed with post-war housing estates and low-rise blocks. Small commercial parades run along Leyton High Road and Francis Road, where bakeries, grocers and independent shops serve the neighbourhood. Leyton tube station on the Central line provides direct links to central London, and several primary schools and community centres are based locally.
The River Lea and the adjacent towpath form the eastern edge of the ward, with industrial units and allotments beyond the river. Leyton Town Hall, an early-20th-century civic building with a clock tower, fronts the High Road and marks a local focal point for events and services. Community projects, pocket parks and sports pitches are scattered through the streets, and the area's mix of small businesses and residential streets gives a clear sense of local life.
