Former Romford Brewery buildings, High Street, Romford
Originally the Star Brewery, based behind The Star public house, which itself was founded in 1708. The brewery was bought by Edward Ind in 1799; the company was joined by the Coope family in 1845 becoming Ind Coope (now Allied Breweries). The company founded a second brewery in Burton-on-Trent in 1856, but brewing continued with Romford Brewery finally closing in 1993. When I was a child Romford was frequently perfumed by the strong smell of malted barley and hops (though this ceased a long time before 1993 with the introduction of more "modern" brewing processes).

Former Romford Brewery building
Romford Brewery closed in 1993, and most of the site was demolished and replaced with the Brewery shopping centre which opened in 2001. Some parts of the old brewery have survived, as shown here. Part of the building now serves as the Havering Museum, and much of the remainder has been converted into housing.

Brewery Walk, Romford
Here is a view of Brewery Walk, a pleasant paved pedestrianised (there's a great piece of alliteration!) alley linking the Brewery car park and shops with the pedestrianised town centre thoroughfare. It is tree-lined down the middle and has circular benches which completely enclose the trees. It is also lit with some rather posh-looking lamp posts. I frequently stop here to eat my lunch (usually bought from nearby Greggs or Subway) when I come shopping here with my friends. I am, however, unsure if I have got the geographical location right - Romford town centre is so complex and full of paths and alleys, I just don't know exactly which alley on the OS map is Brewery Walk!
