	Future Stratford: stories and histories of Stratford, London E15
		Eleven men and two women, later known as the Stratford Martyrs, were brought from Newgate and burnt at the stake on a single fire for their ‘protestant beliefs’.
		Stratford Green, the place of their execution, was near the site of today’s St John’s Church (built in 1834), where a memorial was erected during the 19th century.
		It was thus not surprising that Stratford became the cradle of trades unions and socialism in the UK; and Keir Hardie became the first ever Labour MP when he was elected to represent West Ham in 1892.

		Generally Stratford is safe, especially in the centre, as long as you use normal common sense.
		I've lived in Stratford for 8 years and things haven't changed that much so far, apart from the property prices; there are lots of new luxury flats that have opened /will open soon that I fear will yuppify the place more, but I can't see Wilko and Poundland being bought out just yet.
		Stratfords location to Canary Wharf is excellent and hardly a reason to doubt because of this Stratford has not changed.

		Stratford is rather poorly served by train, better, perhaps, by bus.
		Stratford had less to see and is more crowded (drove through it this summer and it was so packed we didn't even stop, I'd been there before but was going to show it to my husband).
		Stratford is closer to more of the Cotswold towns but if you won't have a car then that doesn't really matter.

		In fact, Stratford so aggressively hustles its Shakespeare connection that it seems at times everybody here is in business to make a buck off the Bard.
		Other than the theater, Stratford is nearly devoid of any rich cultural life, and you may want to rush back to London after you've seen the literary pilgrimage sights and watched a production.
		Besides the attractions on Stratford's periphery, there are many Elizabethan and Jacobean buildings in town, many of them administered by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.
