Harold Hill
Encyclopedia : H : HA : HAR : Harold Hill
- Harold Hill is also the name of a fictional character in the musical The Music Man
Harold Hill is a large-scale post war development and part of the New Towns movement at the end of the World War II, an attempt to move large sections of the population from poor conditions in central districts to the more pleasant surroundings of the suburbs. The success of the plan is a matter for debate.
Unlike the comparable Becontree development, Harold Hill was built without direct connection to the London Underground or National Rail services. Transport for London provide several bus routes with connections to tube and rail and are planning that the East London Transit will serve the area.
