Change
Leyton became an urban district in 1894 under the Local Government Act 1894. The portion of Wanstead in the district was reconstituted as a new parish of Cann Hall. The urban district was incorporated as a municipal borough in 1926. The borough ran Leyton Urban District Council Tramways tram services until they became the responsibility of the London Passenger Transport Board in 1933.

Famous quotes containing the word change:
“I can’t change the teachings of Christ. I can’t change the teachings of Christ!... I’ve looked on a lot of women with lust ... and God forgives me for it.... Christ says, Don’t consider yourself better than someone else.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“They would not guess how early in
Their supine stationary voyage
The air would change to soundless damage....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“For me, the principal fact of life is the free mind. For good and evil, man is a free creative spirit. This produces the very queer world we live in, a world in continuous creation and therefore continuous change and insecurity. A perpetually new and lively world, but a dangerous one, full of tragedy and injustice. A world in everlasting conflict between the new idea and the old allegiances, new arts and new inventions against the old establishment.”
—Joyce Cary (1888–1957)
