Walthamstow Stadium was a greyhound racing track located in the London Borough of Waltham Forest in east London . It was regarded as the leading greyhound racing stadium in Britain following the closure of White City in 1984. The stadium closed on 16 August 2008.
In the early part of the 20th century the Myrtle Grove sports ground was built and used by the Walthamstow Grange Football Club from 1908. By 1929 the ground hosted greyhound racing for the first time and was known as the Crooked Billet Greyhound and whippet track; this was an independent track .
In 1931, William Chandler, a bookmaker by trade, decided to build on the existing flapping track . Chandler also had shares in the Hackney Wick Stadium.
