Background

History

The club was formed in 1887 as the Beaumont Harriers but became the Essex Beagles in July 1891. In 1985, Essex Beagles merged with Newham Athletic Club, when it moved from Barking to the Terence McMillan Stadium (named after Terence Mcmillan the first charter mayor of Newham 1965–1966) in the London Borough of Newham, East London. In April 2018 the club moved from the Terence McMillan Stadium to the London Marathon Community Track in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park adjacent to the London Stadium.
