View over Ilford from the Exchange Shopping Centre multi-storey car park
This view reminds me of the aerial views over rooftops you get in the title sequence of Coronation Street! Looking north-northeast. My primary school, Christchurch, on Christchurch Road can be seen in the centre of the image.

Car Park, Exchange Shopping Centre Ilford
This view shows the car park façade on Ley Street. The structure dates from the very early 1990's when the centre opened.

This a slight pan south from

View north down Hainault Street
I thought I may as well add this for the sake of completeness, as I have already explored what is on the other side of the railway bridge. This is a response to Andrew Dann's view of the nearby bus station, showing some of the run-down houses, small shops and businesses that are mentioned. The closed down former bakers' shop I have pictured is just to the left of the right-hand bend in the road, while the railway bridge is just behind me. View looking north down Hainault Street to where the road name changes to Ley Street.

Hainault Street bus station from Hainault Street
This is a response to Andrew Dann's
Image, taken from Hainault Street and looking towards the railway (behind the buildings in the background). All the buildings you see in the background have only been built over the course of this decade - I think the silver and peach building was built in 2004 and the others behind it throughout 2005 and 2006. The building on the extreme left in the foreground, however, is a multi-storey car park and part of the bus station operations and has been there for as long as I can remember. The bus station is only just inside the left edge of the square, so it may be possible I may be looking at the bus station from square TQ4386, but I'm not quite sure.

Railway outside Ilford Station
The railway cuts through Ilford Town Centre in a cutting, which burrows underneath the Exchange Mall, before arriving at Ilford station. The two tracks on the left are for fast trains from Liverpool Street to Southend Victoria, Essex and East Anglia, whilst the two tracks on the right handle the suburban services between Liverpool Street and Shenfield (with an occasional train to Southminster). View taken from the Hainault Street bridge, looking towards Ilford Station. The Ilford Exchange is in the centre of the photo, whilst above and beyond that is the BT tower on Ilford Hill.

View over Ilford from the Exchange Shopping Centre multi-storey car park #3
Looking north-northwest towards Gants Hill. Wentworth House on the corner of Beehive Lane and the A12 Eastern Avenue can be seen at the extreme left of the image. To the right of this is Gabrielle House (built on the site of the Odeon cinema) and City Gate House, a former office block which was converted to flats in 2006. The rather uninspiring building on Myrtle Road below contains flats and was constructed about 5-6 years ago.
