context_page_description: Forest Gate is a residential district in east London, England, in the London Borough of Newham.
  The area has never been an administrative unit and so has never had any formal boundaries, but it is often seen as conterminous with the E7 postal area and so it lies on both sides of the boundary between West and East Ham.
  The area lies roughly 7 miles northeast of Charing Cross and is bordered by Manor Park to the east and Stratford town centre to the west.
  Forest Gate is 1.5 miles east of Westfield Stratford City and the 2012 Olympic Park. The northern half of the busy Green Street runs through it and from 2019, Forest Gate railway station will be served by Crossrail.
