	Market Boy, a CurtainUp London review
		The street banter of the market boys and their "anything is possible" philosophy is lively and authentic.
		Steve the Nutter (John Marquez) leaves the market, discovers clubbing, Ecstasy, Ibiza and the concept of "so loved up!" We are treated to a procession of people in the history of Romford from the Roman Emperor Vespasian, through the pirate Captain Blood to the twentieth century's star snooker player, Steve Davis.
		Market Boy deserves a big press but it may please neither the stalwarts of the Conservative Party nor the intelligentia of the Left for the lightness with which it handles the smashing of the trade unions and the advent of negative equity.

	Market Boy Review by David Eldridge at Olivier, National Theatre London 2006
		'Market Boy' is set in Romford, a town on the eastern edge of London, during the period 1985 to 1991 — the heyday of Thatcherism which initially bloated the bank accounts of the newly-middle class, but closed in a deep and miserable recession.
		Thirteen year-old 'Boy' is persuaded by his mother to ask for a job on a shoe stall in the town's market where all the remaining action is set.
		Having taught in a school which was located on the edge of a market similar to that depicted in this show, I can not only sympathise with the characterisations, but can also vouch for their authenticity.

		The basic idea is to site a Making Markets Matter trailer in the town centre but away from the market itself — in Romford on July 26 it will be some 200 yards away.
		At Romford the trailer will be sited at a location where the public habitually walk from one shopping centre to another, effectively giving the market a wide berth.
		The second Making Markets Matter will be staged at the international market to be held in Bradford over the August bank holiday weekend.

	St. Edward the Confessor, Romford on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
		Ask anyone in Romford which is the oldest church in town and they are likely to name St.Edward The Confessor, the tall parish church in Romford Market Place.
		Romford parish church was originally nowhere near the present site but was on the other side of the River Rom [then called the Mercheditch - the 'murky' ditch] but this first site was prone to flooding so the parish church was removed to the present market site in 1410.
		The market is still a hive of activity on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays with market stalls almost up to the gate of the churchyard.

	Havering - Romford Market history
		Since there was no other market within that distance, King Henry III (1242-1247) granted Romford permission to hold one every Wednesday as an outlet for the Hornchurch leather trade.
		A Tuesday market was established by 1633, and a Monday market around the late 18th century, but this was doomed to failure and discontinued shortly before 1816.
		In a spirit of optimism perhaps engendered by the end of the Great War, traders tried a daily market in 1919, but this idea was dropped in 1925, leaving the three markets that we know today.
