I don't think I've ever been to Barking, maybe cycled through it on the way to Southend, good to hear there's a possibility of a nice town centre. The houses in my budget are definitely more Dagenham than Barking but I could try and find one on the border
I only just twigged that the red spots are houses in your budget, right?
I actually quite rate Becontree. It's super suburban but decent houses with gardens, parks, smatterings of shops. No real town centre though. The cul-de-sacs are called "banjos".
yeah the red dots are houses in budget. I don't care much about a town centre as long as there's a couple of shops to buy snacks from in walkable distance. Our search is on ice for a little while as we try and force our building management to sort out an EWS1 form.
