The Rom is a Grade II listed skatepark in Hornchurch, East London, England.
Built in 1978 and designed by Adrian Rolt of G-Force, it is the most completely preserved purpose-built skatepark in England.
[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Since the Bro Bowl has subsequently been 3D scanned, demolished, and rebuilt in a different location of the same park area[9] the Rom is now the only heritage listed full size skatepark in existence.
A film about the history of the park - Rom Boys: 40 Years of Rad is currently on general release on major streaming platforms.
The central 4,000 square metres (43,000 sq ft) is surfaced in Shotcrete pressurised concrete.
