South Woodford Library and Gym

The name Redbridge comes from a bridge over the River Roding which was demolished in 1921. The bridge was made of red brick, unlike other bridges in the area made of white stone. The name had first been applied to the Redbridge area and Redbridge tube station was opened in 1947. It was earlier known as Hocklee's Bridge. A refurbished library teamed with a state of the art 40 station gym and studio; offering personal training programme, fitness classes, membership options and access to our facilities at Fullwell Cross and Wanstead Leisure Centres.
