Upminster is a suburban town in East London. The town has plenty of rich history and is excellently located for commuters who work in the city centre. Upminster was historically a rural village before it shifted to brick making and then a garden suburb. Today you'll find plenty of shops lining its high street, and small businesses do rather well here. It's been connected to central London by railway since 1885, and so many families moved to Upminster for a calmer way of life, where they're still able to get into the city centre rather quickly.
