Up-and-coming

The Forest Road corridor running east-west through Walthamstow. A busy, noisy main road with a mix of housing behind it, from Victorian terraces to council estates. Blackhorse Road station is nearby, which has the Victoria line and Overground. The area around the station has seen a lot of new development and there are plans for more. Away from the new builds, it is still fairly rough around the edges.
