AFC Hornchurch - AFC Hornchurch - "The Urchins" The Hornchurch Stadium - Capacity: 3,500 (seating 1,000) Bridge Avenue, Upminster Essex RM14 2LX About The Stadium Hornchurch have called “The Stadium” home since 1953 when they moved from Upminster Park. The ground is predominantly an athletics ground with individual stands placed around the edge. As the club made a rapid rise through the leagues in the early 2000′s bits were added to comply with various league gradings. The Riverside side of the ground is so-called as the River Ingrebourne runs behind it. On this side of the ground there are three separate stands offer shelter from the elements although as they are not very steep the view isn’t the best. On the East side of the ground is the Main stand, flanked by covered terracing. The East side also houses the rather plush, for non-league standards anyway, club shop, bar and restaurant where you can have a beer and watch the game from the raised patio area. At the far ends of each ground is simply a fence around the pitch. How to get to The Stadium If you are coming by road then undoubtedly you will arrive via M25. Cross the river via the Dartford Tunnels (remember your £2 toll fee on the way) and then exit the motorway at junction 29 on to the A127 towards London. Come off at the next major turn-off (signposted to Upminster) and turn left into Hall Lane. Follow this road for about a mile and a half, passing Upminster station on your left, until you come to a major crossroads with traffic lights. Turn right at the lights into St Mary's Lane. Continue down the hill and take the second turning on the left (Bridge Avenue). The stadium is found about 200 yards down Bridge Avenue on the right. There is plenty of on-street parking around the ground. Approximate journey time from Lewes is 90 minutes, when the motorway traffic is behaving. The nearest BR station is Upminster which is on the Fenchurch Street to Southend/Shoeburyness line. Turn left out of the station then do a right at the traffic lights into St Mary’s Lane. Follow this road down the hill and before you reach the Railway bridge and pub on your right, do a left into Bridge Avenue. The ground is 200 yards down this road on your right hand side. Upminster Bridge underground station (District line) is also close to the ground. Turn right out of the station, walk under the railway bridge and take the second right turning into Bridge Avenue. Fancy a beer? The Windmill, opposite the turning into Bridge Avenue is not bad and serves some good cheap food. Alternatively, get off the train at Hornchurch and head to the Railway Hotel in Station Lane which always has an extensive range of decent ales on offer and worth an extra 10 minutes walk to the ground. Admission to The Stadium Admission is £10 for Adults, £7 for Concessions and £3 for Under16′s to Under12’s and Free for little ones younger than that. Programmes are available on inside the gate for £2. .

  • This Branch Is Closing – but We're Still Here to Help
    This branch is closing – but we're still here to help Our Upminster branch is closing on Friday 29 May 2020 Reasons for closure, and alternative ways to bank This branch is closing – but your bank is always open This first booklet will help you understand why we’ve made the decision to close this branch. It also sets out the banking services and support that will be available to you after this branch has closed. In a second booklet, which will be available from the branch prior to it closing or online at home.barclays/ukbranchclosures, we'll share concerns and feedback from the local community. We'll also detail how we are helping people transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. Here are the main reasons why the Upminster branch is closing: • The number of transactions has gone down in the previous 24 months, and additionally 84% of our branch customers also use other ways to do their banking such as online and by telephone. • Customers using other ways to do their banking has increased by 26% since 2012. • In the past 12 months, 55% of this branch's customers have been using neighbouring branches. • We've identified that only 93 customers use this branch exclusively for their banking Proposals to close any branch are made by the Barclays local leadership teams and verified at a national level ahead of any closure announcement. If you have any questions and concerns about these changes then please feel free to get in touch with Jon Clowes, your Market Director for Local East.
