Southend Road |
Waltham Forest, Greater London |
Brief Outline: Not so much a place and more a state of mind. The joyful state of mind that you find yourself in on the way to the biggest Southend in the world. Southend Road Waltham was the only way for many people to get to Southend-on-Sea before the M25 was constructed in 1986. Despite the fact that Southend-on-Sea would've still been over an hour away when Southend Road is reached it seems like the local authorities have decided to take advantage of this feel good factor. Cynical though it may be to cash in for their own benefit, Southend Road can take the name of Southend in its own right. Providing everything that a road tripper needs, it is perfect for a pit stop if you've missed the M25 junction or even as a destination on its own. There is a petrol station, large supermarket outlet and pub on the very road itself. |
