Sporting Club Thamesmead

On Friday, 9 February 2008, Trust Thamesmead received planning permission from Bexley Council to go ahead with Sporting Club Thamesmead - a £4m redevelopment of Thamesmead Town Football Club, to transform it into a community sports centre.

This planning permission grants the ‘demolition of the existing clubhouse (Thamesmead Town Football Club) and erection of replacement clubhouse incorporating a spectator seating area, provision of a new floodlit all-weather pitch, two multi-use games areas, car park and landscaping’.


Trust Thamesmead's Mick Hayes said: “The site will remain the home of Thamesmead Town F.C. but will become a community focused facility, providing new facilities for sport, physical activity and a resource for local school sports and community groups.

“A big thank you goes to Continuum Sport and Leisure Ltd, Saville Jones Architects, Trust Thamesmead staff and of course Thamesmead Town Football Club for all the hard work that has gone into the planning of Sporting Club Thamesmead.”

Work begins on-site in Autumn 2008, with completion due Autumn 2009/early 2010.
