Aldersbrook Estate

From the longer Wikipedia page

The Aldersbrook Estate is the name given to an Edwardian housing estate in Wanstead North-East London in the area of the same name. The estate is bounded by Aldersbrook Road to the south, Bush Wood to the west, Wanstead Park to the north, and the City of London Cemetery and Crematorium to the east. It is wholly in the London Borough of Redbridge, and borders Waltham Forest and Newham. One half of Aldersbrook is in the postcode district of E11, the other in E12. Some of the part in E12 was formerly part of Newham.

The built-up area is surrounded on all sides by open space or parkland, which is distinctive in the otherwise dense urban landscape of North-East London. Northumberland Avenue and Aldersbrook Road, in particular, have housing frontage built only on one side of the road, affording views of Wanstead Park and Wanstead Flats, respectively, to the properties there. Perhaps reflecting the generally pro-temperance Edwardian era in which the estate was laid out, or perhaps due to restrictive covenant,[1] there are no public houses at all in the area, save for the bar of the Courtney Hotel, which is at the extreme south-eastern corner of the area. There is also a bowls club that has a small bar in it, located on Aldersbrook road.
