Property to rent in Beckton
Beckton is a mixture of modern houses, beautiful parks and out-of-town shopping centres, but a few areas of Victorian housing survive in Winsor Terrace and the 'Nottingham' estate off Prince Regent Lane.
Beckton was named after Simon Adams Beck, the governor of the Gas Light and Coke Company which produced ink, dyes, mothballs, and fertilisers; by-products from turning coal to coke and producing town gas. When Britain switched to North Sea natural gas in 1969, the gasworks closed.
Beckton’s boundaries are the A13 trunk road to the north, Royal Docks Road to the east, the Royal Albert Way to the south, and Prince Regent Lane to the west. The area around Prince Regent Lane is also known as Custom House. These days, Beckton is divided into East Beckton, Mid Beckton, North Beckton, West Beckton, and Cyprus, named in 1878 to celebrate the British capture of Cyprus from the Ottoman Empire.
