Ilford  was known as Ilefort in Domesday and had a mill and a fishery. Its name seems to derive from 'ford over the River Hyle'. In this part of Essex there are several small rivers running into The Thames and towns grew up at fords such as Ilford and Romford though the later was much the larger in the 17th century. Ilford became famous for Ilford Films founded in the 19th century and through being the highest navigable point on the River Roding achieved early commercial success at the start of the 20th century.

Ilford lies about eight miles from central London and about ten miles southwest of Brentwood. Romford is about four miles and Barking two miles. The M25 at Junction 28 is about 11 miles and fast trains to London (Liverpool Street) take just over 15 minutes.
