Philly EastEnders
The Original Walford
The original scriptwriters of EastEnders found their inspiration in the real
London borough of Fassett Square, Hackney, E8.
For more information and photos of Fassett Square, go to: Fassett Square, The Original Inspiration for EastEnders
.
And what about the tube station? Well, the Walford Tube Station doesn't
appear on any actual map of the London Underground. The station itself
was created on the EastEnders set. However, those who look very closely
have determined that Walford East is located geographically in place of the
real Bromley-by-Bow -- between Bow Road and West Ham. Go to Walford Tube Station
for more information about Walford East.
