Walking Tour - Thames Ironworks FC - the Roots of West Ham

The Thames Ironworks was a large shipbuilding yard at Bow Creek in East London. In 1895 they formed a company football team that played in the Southern League and FA Cup. In 1900 the club was wound up and reborn as West Ham United.

This walk tells the story of Thames Ironworks FC. We will visit Hermit Road and the Memorial Ground, two of the places the club played, as well as the site of the Ironworks and a few other locations connected with the club.
