Newbury Park, London
Newbury Park is a district in East London, situated in the London Borough of Redbridge east of Gants Hill. The main road is the Eastern Avenue (A12). The main landmark in this town is the station which won a prize for architecture in 1951. It was part of Essex until 1965.
At one time, it had two hospitals: the King George V and Ilford Maternity Hospital. They have both been demolished and replaced by blocks of flats, while a new hospital called King George V has been built further east in Little Heath.
The area has three synagogues: a constituent of the United Synagogue (orthodox), the Ohel David (in the tube station) for oriental Jews and the South West Essex Reform Jewish synagogue. The first of these originally met in the tube station before the Ohel David, and it has a green arching roof that echoes that of the station bus shelter. A fourth synagogue, the Barkingside Progressive Synagogue, is, despite its name, also in Newbury Park.The area also has a number of Churches.
Newbury was first recorded in 1348.
