History

Originally the name Hale End covered a larger part of this part of London stretching from the North Circular Road (Wadham Bridge) all the way down to Clivedon Road, and to Sheriden Road approaching Chingford Hatch next to Highams Park Lake, but this changed at the beginning of the twentieth century when much of the area was renamed "Highams Park".[2] Many references about the history of Highams Park are about Walthamstow ("Highams Benstead a hamlet of Walthamstow" also previously known as Haysham Town located just over a mile from Highams Park present location "The former Hale End"). Old maps give detail to this fact. The area was a clearing originally in the forest called ‘North End’ or ‘Wood End’. In 1285 a Walter de la Hale lived there but "Hale End" became used as the name only in the 17th when a Thomas Hale lived there.
