The pavilion on The Drive was built in 1923 for the Port of London Authority's sports ground, designed by Sir Edwin Cooper with a portico of four Tuscan columns, and is listed Grade II.
From Griggs' houses on The Drive to Eastern Avenue
The Victoria County History dates the Cranbrook estate from 1897, when Peter Griggs, a local contractor, began building just north of the Grange estate. By 1903 houses filled the ground between Wanstead Park Road and The Drive as far north as Seymour Gardens, and the Methodist church on The Drive began in a temporary building in 1904. St Andrew's followed in 1923-4.
North of that, towards Eastern Avenue, the houses are later. Redbridge's 2014 characterisation study ties the northern part of north Ilford to the building of Eastern Avenue, and describes its interwar houses as often semi-detached or in shorter terraces, with rounded front bays. Castleview Gardens, Devonport Gardens, Preston Gardens and Hillview Crescent, just south of Eastern Avenue, fall in a census area of 522 households: in 2021, 54.4% lived in a terraced house and 20.5% in a semi, and 70.2% owned their home.
An interwar terrace often has a narrow kitchen at the back with a built-in single or a freestanding cooker. The study describes prominent, often double-fronted bay windows on the older roads off Cranbrook Road and The Drive, and notes that north Ilford's large old family houses have been popular for flat conversions. Either way the method is the same: racks, trays and side runners come out and are soaked and cleaned separately, and the cavity, fan cover and door glass are done by hand indoors.
Renting and licensing in Cranbrook ward
Across Cranbrook ward, 32.1% of households rented privately at the 2021 Census, and 11.0% lived in part of a converted or shared house.
For a checkout, the oven goes on the inventory with everything else. An agency can have the invoice in its own name and photos for the file, and keys to an empty flat can be collected by arrangement. More on end of tenancy oven cleaning and deposits.

Parking off Eastern Avenue
Eastern Avenue is marked as a red route on the council's map, where stopping at the kerb is restricted. The side roads at Castleview Gardens and Preston Gardens are not in a controlled zone on Redbridge's permit parking map, so no permit is needed to park there; the council asks drivers to check the signs and lines on the street all the same. The team needs somewhere to park.
Cranbrook oven cleaning questions
Is Valentines Park in Cranbrook?
Mostly not. Almost all of the park is in Valentines ward, which has its own Valentines page; the Cranbrook ward boundary clips a narrow strip of the park's western edge. Cranbrook ward lies mainly west of the park, round The Drive and Wanstead Lane.
My flat is a conversion with a tiny kitchen. Is there room?
Tell us about the kitchen when you book. The cavity, fan cover and door glass are done by hand on dust sheets, and the racks, trays and side runners come out and are soaked and cleaned separately.
How long does a double oven take?
About two hours, at £110. Both cavities are degreased by hand and both sets of racks are soaked and cleaned separately.
Can I cancel if the tenant's move-out date changes?
Yes, free of charge up to 24 hours before the visit.
What customers tell us
Arrived promptly and did a great job cleaning the oven, hob and extractor. They look like new now and for a very reasonable price too.
I would certainly recommend this service, very efficient and good value for money. The young man did a great job and even cleaned the kitchen floor. Thank you.
Once again a great job guys, I will see you in a couple of months.
