E15 Stratford
Stations - Stratford (BR Liverpool Street/BR North London/Central/DLR), Maryland
(BR Liverpool Street), Pudding Mill Lane (DLR - due to open during the currency
of this Guide).
Once at the boundary of the Danelaw (the end of the line for Carlsberg in the
900s) and in Essex before the first round of the county re-organisations, the
entry to Stratford is marked by an abrupt transition to industrial sprawl as one
crosses the River Lea from Bow. The lack of pollution controls caused many
industries to set up here in the 18th and 19th centuries which were not allowed
in London proper. The River Lea also once marked the transition from 10.30 to
11pm evening pub closure hours for pubs, bringing extra trade from Bow for those
nearer the river. Lacking a residential base, many of the pubs in this part of
the area offer music in the evenings to get the punters in, although sadly real
ale is not a big seller.
The centre of Stratford is home to a large shopping centre which is untainted by
architectural merit but nonetheless draws in the crowds, although if you get
there through the connection from the stations then you don't have to look
outside anyway. You do of course if you go outside to visit one of the range of
pubs in the centre - whilst many are orientated towards the younger market there
should be one to suit most tastes. Going eastward rows of Victorian terraced
houses mark a further change in the character of Stratford and this is where you
might expect to find the street corner locals. Many pubs are Big Four, but there
are exceptions and it is worth looking out for guest beers.
