Walthamstow Avenue FC ground - Isthmian League club, which folded in the late 1980's.
A strange set of circumstances which began first, with Ilford FC who played near Newbury Park central line station, they then 'merged' with Leytonstone FC (becoming Leytonstone/Ilford) who played at Granleigh Road lefthand side of Gospel Oak railway line. They then saw their ground sold for housing and moved to play at the Avenue's ground, who by that time had become defunct! So it ended with leytonstone/Ilford playing in Walthamstow at the Green Pond Road ground where they finished as champions of the league in 1981. Afterwards that ground was sold off for housing which it is now "Green Pond estate".
Conspiracy theory anybody. Will anyone tell the real story of why all the clubs died out in such a fashion and wha happened to the money from the land sales? '
