In 2007, a Channel 4 television programme branded Newham the ‘4th worst’ place to live in the UK. You’ll find something about this at • http://www.channel4.com/4homes/on-tv/best-and-worst/newham-3rd-worst-place-to-live-in-the-uk-08-06-05_p_1.html On the other hand, these are comments from the blog about the programme: • ‘A treasure trove of Norman churches and Victorian architecture, Newham's heritage is clear and disparate. The oldest tidal mill in Britain resides here, as does the North Woolwich Old Station Museum, the only steam railway museum in London.’ • ‘If you are young, have kids, are working , Newham is the best place to be because of the accessibility to schools, transport ,childcare, holiday activity. But if you feel you want to live in the dull countryside then it is not the place for you. I’ve lived in Newham for over 30 years and had all my kids there. I love Newham. if I have to leave, I would rather leave the country. Most of my best memories are in Newham . The Newham council are trying their best and I think they are doing a good job and will get there in the end. For those of you who have lived here choose to slag Newham, what positive contribution have you made? Life is not about take , take and take; you have got to give something too. God bless Newham’
