Waltham Forest is a north east London borough that stretches from Walthamstow and Leyton to Leytonstone, Highams Park and Chingford on the edge of Epping Forest.

The Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve lies to the west, while Leyton and Leytonstone offer lively high streets and good Underground access.
