Hornchurch Stadium is located on Bridge Avenue in Upminster in the London Borough of Havering, East London, England.

It was opened in 1956 by Hornchurch Urban District Council[1] and is home to A.F.C. Hornchurch (formerly Hornchurch F.C.), as well as West Ham United L.F.C.. One stand, the 'Riverside', took its name from the River Ingrebourne, a few feet away.

The stadium contains a recently renovated athletics track, which is home to the Havering Mayesbrook Athletics Club. It is near Upminster Bridge tube station.
