The Chase Nature Reserve was formerly a site used for gravel extraction. It now comprises a mosaic of wildlife habitats ranging from horse grazed pastures to woodland and wetland. See https://www.havering.gov.uk/Pages/ServiceChild/NatureReserves-TheChase.aspx The River Rom runs through the nature reserve and here is just above its confluence with the Ravensbourne below which the River Rom is known as the Beam River. The Beam flows into the Thames at Dagenham - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Rom for more information.
