Erith Town Football Club is a football club based in Thamesmead in South East London, England. They are currently members of the Шаблон:English football updater and play at Bayliss Avenue.

History

The club was established in 1959 as a Sunday league club under the name Woolwich Town. They initially played in the London Metropolitan Sunday League and were Senior Section champions in 1965–66, 1970–71 and 1974–75.[1] In 1989 the club was renamed Woolwich Heathway, but reverted to their original name within a year.[2][1] In 1991 they began playing Saturday football,[1] joining Division Two of the Spartan League.[3] Despite only finishing ninth in their first season in Division Two, the club were promoted to Division One due to league restructuring.[1] In 1994–95 they finished second in Division One, earning promotion to the Premier Division.[4]

In 1996 Woolwich transferred to the Kent League, and at the end of the 1996–97 season were renamed Erith Town due to their move to the Erith Stadium.[1][4] They won the Kent League's Premier Division Cup in 2007–08, beating Hythe Town 1–0 in the final.[5] The club reached the final again the following season, losing 3–1 on penalties to Croydon after a 1–1 draw. A proposed merger with Dartford Town in the summer of 2010 was abandoned,[6] and the club went on to win the Kent Senior Trophy in 2010–11 with a 3–1 win over Tunbridge Wells in the final.[5] In 2013 the league was renamed the Southern Counties East League.[7]

Ground

During the club's time in Sunday league they played at the Woolwich Barracks Stadium. When they joined the Spartan League, they moved to Greenwich Borough's Harrow Meadow ground.[2] In October 1995 they moved to the Erith Sports Stadium,[1] an athletics stadium. They temporarily returned to Harrow Meadow during the 1998–99 season whilst the Erith Sports Stadium was renovated.[1]

In 2008 the club began groundsharing at Thamesmead Town's Bayliss Avenue,[8] before returning to the Erith Sports Stadium the following season.[9] In 2013 they moved to Cray Valley PM's Badgers Sports Ground in Eltham.[1] In 2016 they returned to the Borough of Bexley, moving to VCD Athletic's Oakwood ground.[1] The club moved back to the Erith Sports Stadium in 2018.[10] They returned to Thamesmead in June 2023 for the following two seasons.[11]
