Hendon F.C. (1876)

Hendon Football Club was an English football club founded in about 1876. The club was based at Hendon, today in the London Borough of Barnet, England, and played its home games at the Hendon cricket ground in Brampton Grove, off Brent Street, London NW4. The club appeared in the F.A. Cup between 1877 and 1887 and had one of its players selected for England in 1884.

The club's greatest achievement was on 10 November 1883 when it defeated the previous season's FA Cup finalists Old Etonians by three goals to two.

The club continued in existence into the 1930s and is known to have been playing in 1937. There is no direct connection between the original club and the present day Hendon F.C., which was founded in 1908 as Christ Church Hampstead and took its present name in 1946. The two clubs played each other twice in April 1932 to raise funds.
