The take — DFS in Romford
Romford's DFS is at Gallows Corner on Colchester Road (RM3 0AD), where Furniture Village and Natuzzi Editions share the pin — a genuinely odd spread, budget to Italian leather within one car park. The second local branch is the Thurrock Outlet at Lakeside Retail Park (RM20 1WN), one of DFS's few outlet stores and worth the M25 detour if you'd trade choice for a discount on ex-display and end-of-line stock; Sofology trades from the same park. Gallows Corner for the full catalogue, Lakeside for the deal-hunting.
