My great great great grandad came from Walthamstow at the age of 20 he sailed on the Larkins and arrived in New Zealand around 1840. I wish I could see the place for real...hugs.
i used to love walthamstow market it was the best market in the 80s & 90s it has gone down hill a lot which is a crying shame
I was brought up in Cleveland Park Avenue .I went to Forest Road Infants to William Morris High in Green leaf Roadin the 50s
This Vidio has brought back a lot of memories ..Thank you
WOW AMAZING WORK, WELL DONE.
I visited there in 1999 (from California) and I remember some dude saying "Pound A Pound BAH-NAH-NAH!"
There's a mall nearby, as well as a public library. Also a train station. I remember stopping into Pizza Hut along that street.
That market is the first place I really heard Black British people speak and I was sort of puzzled by that.
Also, that market was billed as "The Longest Market in EUROPE", not just Britain.
Love that market so much!!!
@E17bikes Walthamstow is the first time I realized how many Muslims are in the UK. In 1999 I was visiting from California (met a girl over the Internet) and one night I was walking. I saw an open door to a building hanging partially open. I was a nosy tourist, so I peeked inside the door really quick and I saw like 400 Muslims all bowing down in prayer. I really quickly said, "Oh shit!" and back out of there and walked away without turning back. That was in late 1999. I can only imagine now.
To celebrate Waltham Forest being named London's first Borough of Culture 2019, I have uploaded the full-length version of this documentary on RUclips in HD 16:9 for the first time: ruclips.net/video/xo9yQy_DRiM/видео.html
Thank you to everyone who has shared their stories and reminiscences with me!
Pie and mash shop, BEST ONE IN THE WORLD!
I agree with Zarina0631 i think this was done really well and that it captured the feel of the market.Very well directed i look forward to watching more of your films.
My Mum still live's in Walthanstow....I miss the Royal Standard Pub, The Bakers Arms, I used to work at Keabeach, the leisure centre on the High Street, and at Pizza Hut at the top for a while. Is The Waltham Forrest Library still up at the top there? I lived on Boundary Rd. (271) -Ethan Tudor W.

POUND-A-BOWL!!!
@manu2913 i like the markec to there so much thing to buy there
My grandad had a stall in Walthamstow - don't know what he sold though.
I recognize many faces.
Even the TWINS God bless em were part of walthamstow market. (The Stow club) Even The Chequers pub where dear Ronnie went after the killing of George Cornell in The Blind Beggar. (You should see how the new owners of the Chequers have destroyed all the history of the pub)
Great Days we're never get back.
(Because of our stupid government.
Moved to walthamstow 3 years ago and has always felt like home. As phantom3 writes 'wouldn't want to live anywhere else'.

Walthamstow Market has declined. It's still a nice market but not like before.

@rateorhate11 what the hell if your a mulim then as a good person we should like very one in are commutety thata what god says in the q'uran that we should all repstect very religon even if they dont belive in god ?!!!!!"
People get one thing straight. ' Muslim ' isn't a religion. The person who believes in ' islam ' is a muslim.
Islam is the religion. You say that you hate muslims, well then why can't you hate the cristians then???
U can't hate muslim people for no reason. You just have to stop hating. Hope you understand where I'm coming from.
