Description

Using a range of beautiful maps, take a journey through space and time to discover over 2,000 years of local history in this Redbridge maps exhibition.

From the earliest surveys of the 17th Century to detailed Victorian maps and modern phone apps, explore how Ilford, wanstead and Woodford transformed from small country villages to thriving London suburbs.

Visitors can uncover wartime bomb damage maps and local area plans as well as maps that are works of art in their own right.

Complemented by archive photographs, museum objects, oral history and film, the exhibition invites you to see Redbridge in a new light.
