Havering is quite a small village, but incorporates Romford and Hornchurch as part of its history. This is almost certainly due to its popularity in earlier years with royal visits, but Romford is now the major centre, with Hornchurch as its subordinate.

LIBERTY OF HAVERING-ATTE-BOWER]
The Liberty, created in 1465 by royal charter, comprised the extensive ancient
parish of Hornchurch which included the later civil parishes of Hornchurch,
HAVERING and Romford. The Liberty and its separate Courts of Quarter Sessions
and Petty Sessions were abolished in 1892, when its jurisdiction was transferred
to the Country.
On 4 January 1893 the Essex Court of Quarter Sessions ordered that a new Petty
Sessional Division to be called the Romford Division be constituted to comprise
the parishes of Romford, HAVERING and Hornchurch (which lately formed the
Liberty of HAVERING-atte-Bower) and Upminster and such portion of the parish of
Cranham as lies immediately south of the northern boundary fence of the London
and Southern Railway (which lately formed part of the PETTY Sessional Division
of Brentwood) with effect from 16 February 1893 [Q/SO 55 p.632].
For RECORDS of the Petty Sessional Division of Romford see P/Ro. The earliest
RECORDS of the Romford Division are to be found in the last volumes of the
Liberty of HAVERING-atte-Bower Petty Sessions eg.P/Hv R3, P/Hv L1.
