Only 14 miles away from Charing Cross you’ll find leafy suburb, Romford in Essex. Founded in 1177, it has a rich history and was originally known as “Romfot”. The River Rom, which surrounds it, gave it part of its name, whereas “fot” meant “wide or spacious”. As it’s on the Central Line, you can get straight into the centre of London in around 45 minutes or hop on the railway and be in Stratford in just 16 minutes! It’s really convenient which is why it’s a popular place for commuters to live as it’s so close to the capital, as well as being within easy access to the rest of Essex.
