The
County of London was formed in 1889 from parts of the ancient counties
of Middlesex, Kent and Surrey, with
the City of London remaining an independent body. In 1965 Greater
London was formed, taking in the rest of Middlesex (which no
longer existed as a county) together with parts of Essex and Hertfordshire
and further areas of Kent and Surrey.
Greater
London is made up of 13 Inner and 19 Outer London boroughs together
with the City of London.
Havering once lay in Essex and is today one of the
19 boroughs making up Outer London. It lies on the northeast edge
of the capital with the River Thames running along its southern border.

The
borough once lay in Essex which once formed the kingdom of the East
Saxons,
later becoming part of the kingdom of Wessex.
The East Saxon kingdom reached from the river Thames in the south
(on the other side of which lay the kingdom of Kent) to the river
Stour in the north (which separated the kingdom from that of the East
Angles).
