Welcome to Gallows Corner

Gallows Corner is a major intersection located in the London Borough of Havering. It is situated at the junction of the A12 and A127 roads, which are two of the busiest roads in Greater London. The area is named after the gallows that were once located there, where criminals were hanged in the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, Gallows Corner is a bustling commercial hub, with a variety of shops, restaurants, and businesses located in the surrounding area.

One of the most notable features of Gallows Corner is its proximity to several major retail parks. The area is home to a number of large stores, including Tesco, Next, and B&Q, which attract shoppers from across the region. In addition to these retail parks, there are also several smaller shops and businesses located in the area, making it a popular destination for both locals and visitors alike.

Despite its commercial focus, Gallows Corner is also home to several green spaces and parks. The nearby Harrow Lodge Park is a popular destination for families and nature lovers, with its large lake, playgrounds, and sports facilities. The park is also home to a number of events throughout the year, including music festivals, fairs, and fireworks displays. Overall, Gallows Corner is a vibrant and diverse area that offers something for everyone, whether you're looking to shop, dine, or simply enjoy the great outdoors.
