East London

East London is an area of London that has had a number of different definitions.

For the purposes of the Mayor of London's London Plan 2011, the East London sub-region contains the London Boroughs of Barking and Dagenham, Bexley, Greenwich, Lewisham, Hackney, Havering, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, and Waltham Forest. However East London is more commonly taken to refer only to the area north of the river, typically Barking and Dagenham, Hackney, Havering, Newham, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, and Waltham Forest.

The East End is the historic inner core of East London, roughly equivalent to the borough of Tower Hamlets.
