Eton Manor F.C. is an English association football club based in Essex.
The club was formed in 1901 by rich and influential families of the likes of Barings, Villiers and Lord Chelsea for the benefit of bringing sport to the door and underprivileged youth of the East End of London. Various clubhouses were used in the early years and eventually the sportsground at Hackney Marshes known as "The Wildernes" was used, this started a period of great success in the thirties for the club's football, cricket and rugby sides. The success continued into the forties, fifties and sixties with many famous players coming from the club, Alf Ramsey and Len Wills are just two to have played for the Manor in past. In the 1960's the sports separated and went their own way, and so started long periods of travelling for the Manor's football team using a number of stadiums along the way. After playing in the Greater London League, the club moved to the Essex Senior League in 1975 and have stayed with the competition ever since.
