Walthamstow stadium (now closed) was a greyhound racing track in east London. The track closed in 2008. It was opened in 1933 by William Chandler and run by the Chandler family until it closed. It had a larger attendance and income from gambling than any other dog racing track in the UK.
As a popular fact, David Beckham's first job was as a glass collector at the stadium.
