Redbridge
Redbridge gave its name to an entire London borough and got nothing back for it except a lifetime of being mistaken for the council. Underneath the confusion it is a neat run of interwar semis between the Roding and Wanstead, with the Eastern Avenue roaring past at all hours. People buy here for the Central line and the extra bedroom, then spend a decade telling friends they live near Wanstead.
