Wanstead, E11

Wanstead is a suburban area in the London Borough of Redbridge, North-East London. The main road going through Wanstead is the A12. The name means "place by a lump or hillock" and is first recorded circa 1050.

Unlike many "Clone towns" independent retailers thrive in Wanstead and only a few chain stores are present, such as The George, (which is a JD Wetherspoons pub), Boots and Woolworths Group. Other pubs in the High Street include Russells, Bar Room Bar ("BRB") and the recently refurbished Cuckfield.

Wanstead is home to a large comprehensive school, Wanstead High School. There are five primary schools in Wanstead: Our Lady of Lourdes, Wanstead Church School, Nightingale, Snaresbrook and St. Joseph's which is an all-girls' private school.

The town has a largely suburban feel, containing open grasslands such as Wanstead Flats, and the woodland of Wanstead Park (part of Epping Forest). The park, with artificial lakes, was the setting for a large stately home Wanstead House (said to be the architectural inspiration for Mansion House, London). It was demolished after a fire in the early 19th century.

It is also home to Wanstead Golf club, which has hosted many of the major events in the Essex County calendar. A notable landmark towards the northern edge of Wanstead is the former Wanstead Hospital building, now a housing complex.
