West Ham Memorial Garden
In 2001, the Memorial Garden, situated on the site of our former home, the Boleyn Ground, became an area where West Ham supporting families could pay tribute in memory of loved ones.
For over 15 years, more and more West Ham fans said farewell to family and to friends, at a place that meant so much to them. A place that is so close to all of our hearts. The tributes grew into their hundreds, with personal plaques and cherished items adorning the area, and families continue to pay their respects at the Garden today.
The Garden was very much created by the fans, for the fans. A special place, belonging to the West Ham Family. A special place, where family and friends could come to remember those they have lost, and to reflect upon those great moments, with so many fantastic memories – the highs and even the lows, all shared together at our Boleyn Ground.
While the Garden has now changed, the memory of those remembered here will always live on, and the new Garden is a fitting and lasting tribute to them.
Our loved ones will always be there, and it will always be their special place.
