South Woodford Village Gazette
Historical society to present images
of Woodford from the archives
Motorists urged to adhere to parking
restrictions on The Roses estate
Images documenting local history will be on
show at the Woodford Historical Society’s
meeting on 14 March. “My talk will be a
light-hearted review of archive information
and illustrations of Woodford gleaned over
the past year,” said Peter Lawrence, whose
presentation will take place at All Saints
Church hall from 2.30pm (visitors: £3). Among
the images will be a photo of the Woodford
Cycle Meet, an annual fancy-dress parade
which ran from 1882 to 1914 to raise money for
local hospitals. Visit swvg.co.uk/history

Councillor Rosa Gomez is appealing for more
consideration from motorists parking near
St Aubyn’s School. “Parking has been a serious
problem on The Roses estate in Woodford
Green for years. A consultation took place in
January 2021, and this approved morning and
afternoon parking controls, with residents
now paying a fee to park outside their homes.
Things improved, but I have been contacted
again by concerned residents. My message to
those parking on the estate: please think of
the residents and adhere to the restrictions.”
