Ilford Retro Vol. 1: Comparing Ilford Past with Ilford Present

By Rod Forliter

This nostalgic collection of photographs of the East London suburb of Ilford captures the drastic changes throughout the town's recent past. Unique side-by-side and picture-in-picture comparisons between then and now are accompanied by detailed descriptions of the town's changes during a period of over 40 years. Whether you wish to rekindle memories of Ilford before the sweeping demolition of the 1980s, see what many of today's landmarks used to look like, or simply reminisce about the household names from days gone by, this book is for you. From Gants Hill Odeon and the pubs which no longer exist, to the destruction of Scrafton Road and the changes on Barkingside High Street, this book is for anyone who knew, knows or wishes to find out more about Ilford and its changing townscape.
