CHADWELL HEATH
Including Marks Gate

Chadwell Heath, Essex, 2 miles west of Romford on the London road, and a Station on the Great Eastern Railway, 9½ miles from Bishopsgate Station, is a collection of commonplace houses straggling along the highroad, over what was in the last century a heath noted for highwaymen. A little west of it is another nest of similar houses, known as Chadwell Street. Chadwell Heath is a hamlet of Dagenham; Chadwell Street of Barking: both depend mainly on agriculture.
