Leyton Grange

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Leyton Grange (Leyton east London) is the second most deprived area of London Borough of Waltham Forest and consists of a 10-storey tower and ten 4-storey courts owned by Forest Homes. It is near to the New Covent Garden Market.

Leyton Grange is sited in an area of Waltham Forest that overlooks the marshes of the River Lea, east of the city of London. Leyton Grange was the site of the country house property of a branch of the Lane family from 1784 until approximately the 1860s, after which it was broken up for development. It now contains a housing estate complex, comprising one 10-storey block and ten 4-storey courts. The area is economically depressed.
