About

Upminster ward occupies the easternmost part of the Havering borough, characterised by its suburban residential layout and green spaces. The area is primarily composed of detached and semi-detached housing, with local shopping parades centred on Station Road and St. Mary's Lane serving the community. Its proximity to the London, Tilbury and Southend railway line provides a direct link to central London, reinforcing its commuter town character.

The district's history is anchored by the 15th-century Upminster Windmill, a preserved post mill that still stands operational within a public park. Large tracts of open land, including Upminster Golf Club and the wide fields bordering the M25 motorway, define its outer edges. This ward maintains a distinct separation from the more urban centres of Romford, with a noticeable village-like atmosphere around its historic conservation area.
