Description: | Between 1881 and 1901 the population of Ilford rose from 7645 to
41,234 and by 1931 had reached 131,061. Wanstead and Woodford
experienced similar growth in the 1920s and 1930s.
This
extraordinary change saw villages turning into suburbs and tens
of thousands of houses being built. New communities were created
with shops, schools, churches, hospitals, parks as well as clubs
and societies catering for all interests. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Redbridge Museum | Rights holder: | Redbridge Museum | Subjects: | Cityscape Home and Family | Temporal: | 1900 - 1930 | Source: | Redbridge Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
