"Leytonstone is a unique, eclectic area, home to great gastro pubs like Leytonstone Tavern and The Red Lion, as well as bistro cafés like The Wild Goose Bakery and Back to Ours. There’s also the open green space of Wanstead Flats, a serene getaway from the hustle and bustle of urban life. The area is rich in history, with interesting and beautiful Grade II listed buildings such as St John’s Baptist Church (built in 1832) and Leytonstone House, the 18th-century home of Sir Edward Buxton, a notable MP and conservationist. There’s also St Andrew’s Church, built between 1886 and 1893 as a memorial to local philanthropist William Cotton. Leytonstone Library is a great place to visit if you’re feeling studious, and Leytonstone Leisure Centre is close by for the more active-minded. Wanstead Park, in the former grounds of Wanstead House, features walking trails, cycle paths, and several ornamental lakes — a fantastic place to relax, exercise, and soak up some local history. With an array of buses and the nearby Central Line underground station, you can be in the City and surrounding areas in just minutes."   JOSEPH EARNSHAW E11 BRANCH MANAGER
