About Stratford

Stratford is a district in the London Borough of Newham, situated in northeast London, England. It is one of the important centres listed in the London Plan. It was previously a rural settlement in the early township of West Ham, which gradually got converted into an industrial suburb after the introduction of the railways in late 1830s.

As part London developed considerable in the late 19th century, Stratford grew and rose in population, developing as the centre of administration of the Borough of West Ham in 1880s. It has been part of Greater London since 1965. The recent shift in the economic history of Stratford had been stimulated by the transformation from heavy industry and railway works to a major commercial hotspot. Owing to its proximity to the London Olympic Park and in preparation for the 2012 Olympics Stratford is undergoing extensive redevelopment and growth.

Stratford is served by the Great Eastern Main Line, North London Line and the Lea Valley Line. London Overground provides local rail services to Richmond and Clapham Junction and National Express East Anglia provides inter-regional services to London Liverpool Street and East of England. Stratford lies on three of the London Underground lines, which are Central Line, Jubilee Line and Docklands Light Railway.
