Goodmayes is an electoral ward in the London Borough of Redbridge. It is based on the Goodmayes area of Ilford. The ward has existed since the creation of the borough on 1 April 1965 and was first used in the 1964 elections. It returns councillors to Redbridge London Borough Council.

The ward has almost always returned Labour councillors, the only exception being 1968 when one Conservative councillor was elected alongside two Labour ones. (The 1968 London local elections were especially bad for Labour.[1])

1994–2002 Redbridge council elections

[edit]

The ward was adjusted on 1 April 1994 when the part of the Becontree estate in Redbridge was transferred to the new ward of Becontree in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.[8] The transfer united the whole of the estate in Barking and Dagenham. The adjustment transferred sufficient population out of the borough to require a decrease from three to two councillors representing the Goodmayes ward.
