Good god what the hell has happened to Barking

I'm a Poplar boy and still live on the East India Dock Rd. Back in the eighties I used to venture to East Ham regularly. I used to drop into The Burnel Arms to wind the Teddy Boys up and then spend the evening in the Rusking Arms with the Rockers who's company I loved. Great days!

Shi7 hole

Manor park is a shithole never been nice I lived on 4th avenue and Romford road it's been invaded no English there for over 30 years the Asians have invaded the area.

Gosh, I lived there about 30 years ago. I went to the Uni down there.

Hi Roaming Ree, you need to help me out here. I grew up not far from there. (Barkingside) I used to go to West Ham and get my hair cut at Carlo's in Green Street. Brought my Northerner 10 hole Dr Martins at the Army and Navy. When I was at school everyone mixed with each other. Black, Irish, Asian , Jewish and English we were all Cockney's. ( 70's/80's) But now the Area has been nothing more than "ethnically cleansed" with people wholly indifferent to being in the UK. This is so different to my Asian school friends and associates. That said most of the young people would be the children of my Asian friends. Where did this indifference come from as I am sure it was not the parents being of our generation?

Thanks for the upload, i too grew up in Manor Park, and was there from 1966 to 1996. All my family were from the area so i know it well. The Army & Navy had stores on both corners at one time, surplus/clothing on the Stratford side, and camping equipment on the Ilford side. The mosque at the top of Kensington Ave was a bombed out cinema and it stood like that until the early 1990s. When i was a kid, some shops along by Byron Avenue were old school greengrocers, a small Co-Op, a Trustee Savings Bank, a chippy and Chans chinese take-away. Further down past the Ruskin Arms, was a little sub post office and Hayters ironmongers store, so full it was stacked to the ceilings, he had tall ladders to pick things out that you wanted to buy..... As you say, they are building like crazy to put the non stop imports of economic migrants into homes but without any extra infrastructure to deal with the influx.... The supermarkets say they sell enough food for population of around 80 million..... i'm sure their numbers are correct unlike our corrupt politicians!.... I hope you do some more from Newham, perhaps Upton Park, or around the old West Ham bus garage (i used to work there in the 1980s) in Greengate Street. Even Upton Park garage has closed and is now flats!

Remember growing up in the 80s and having no go areas cos of NF. Custom House and Canning town were racist hotspots.

I thought you’d mentioned Marks for Toys as you passed it next to BIMS. Got all my swimming certificates from the town hall in the 80s.

The pub on the Romford Road was called Earl of Essex, I think. Guess what it’s gonna be, FLATS

Wow totally different from what I remember. I think the Mosque on the corner of Kensington Ave use to be a theatre, with Kensington Youth Centre across the road.

East Ham and Manor Park used to be one of east London's 'desirable' middle class areas before WW2 with an amazing High Street with shops of all kinds and an equally amazing cultural life with its own theatre, numerous cinemas and thriving churches of all denominations. It stayed that way as a pleasant ,clean, relatively crime-free suburb until around the 1970's although the theatre had been demolished in the late 1950's and the cinemas were being converted into bingo halls, etc. by that time. Then the 'enrichment' set in.

Sir Ree, love your content especially walk-by around London, never been. Watching from Scotland. if you can make video of old Asian take-aways or restaurant back in the day and if they still exist or all the best food places in London for hot curries. or since you have moved abroad is the food nice there.....brrrrrr Take care Naz

You got it all in London! one is free to buy crap and not so much crap stuff, one has a choice!

Yes- we should pressurise Hamas to release the hostages & those theyre keeping as s*x slaves, then all this fighting will rest !

Wow! I remember going to East Ham TEC on block realise during my apprenticeship back in 1985 😮

Doesn’t look like the east-end to me anymore. Hopefully the area can improve, such a great area

Replacement migration 😢

Looking at the prices the stuff for sale has to be utter tat but have to say you couldnt expect anything else . Worked in Ilford/Barking many years ago and really enjoyed it but have to be honest while we in the North East are seeing the UK deteriorate and we have plenty bad areas ourselves I am still glad to live up here because it looks awful down there.

Imagine the first thing you see coming out of the station is a Coral then a minute down the road there is another amongst all the other betting shops Fun challenge for viewers is how many can you spot

I was born on the gascoigne estate in 75. Moved to dagenham in 83, chadwell heath in 91 then Sydney in 97. Visits back to these places make me sad, such fond memories but now it looks terrible and so uninviting

You say people were nice but you must also remember how really bad racist it was, Paki bashing, NF, C18 etc. At least all that shit is gone.

Third world Barking,

WELOME TO CALCUTTAITS NOT ENGLAND

i used to live in east ham and ould go up to my aunts house at the robin hood pub and used to stop at barking and go to the wimpy at the stn

I remember watching Total Recall at that cinema in the days.

that market looks better than romford, KB was my ground too 2008-2011. Miss seeing you in the office brother, you're looking well.

Typical old git, loves a moan 😂🤣😂

Leave the cheese unlocked, the rats and maggots will overwhelm your house!

Looks nice dont see the problem

What has happened to London.

There is a DNA research and we Azerbaijani people are indeed a mix of generally 6 haplogroups: J2a(25%), G(19%), R1b (12%), J1(8%), R1a(7%), T (4%)and I(3%) and a lot of little percentages of other different haplogroups. So you are absolutely right. Caucasus region is the crossroad of the different type of man and woman that came together and find his/her home in here. Thank you for this video. Greetings to the divers and beautiful world.

It's a bloody, stunning view somewhere behind the trees
