Chingford (UK Parliament constituency)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chingford was a parliamentary constituency centred on the town of Chingford in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. It returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1974 until it was abolished for the 1997 general election. The seat was created out of the old Epping and Walthamstow East constituencies, and no part of it was ever in the post-1974 administrative county of Essex.
It was by the new Chingford and Woodford Green constituency.
