Harold Hill Area: Location and History

Harold Hill is a planned community and housing estate in the London Borough of Havering. Harold Hill was originally part of London’s green belt, but due to the exceptional need for housing following the Second World War, over 7,000 homes were built to house 25,000 people. The housing is fairly low-density, comprising mainly terraced housing and some flats. There is a large section of parkland in the centre and many small parks and green spaces surrounding the area.
