This seat was defined by the Parliamentary Constituencies (Ilford and Woodford) Order 1960, which took effect at the next general election, held in 1964. This Order adjusted the boundaries of Ilford North, Ilford South, and Woodford (which was renamed Wanstead and Woodford), to align with the borough boundaries set in 1956. This was the only boundary adjustment for any constituencies between the 1955 and February 1974 general elections. Until 1974, the seat closely mirrored its predecessor, Woodford, with only minor boundary changes. The constituency was dissolved in 1997 and divided to: • Form parts of new constituencies: • Chingford and Woodford Green (Church End and Monkhams wards) • Leyton and Wanstead (Snaresbrook and Wanstead wards) • Expand Ilford North, incorporating Bridge, Clayhall, and Roding wards. Proposals to re-establish the seat were included in the Boundary Commission review published on 13 September 2011. If implemented, the new seat would consist of the wards Monkhams, Bridge, Church End, Roding, Snaresbrook, and Wanstead, with Clayhall rejoining, along with the addition of Cranbrook and Valentines in Redbridge, located east of the A406 trunk road. ==Members of Parliament==
