Meridian play their home games at the Meridian Sports & Social Club on Charlton Park Lane in Charlton. The social club was established in 1921 by employees of Siemens who worked at the company's Woolwich factory, with staff contributing money towards its running from their weekly pay. The sports ground was bought in 1933, with the clubhouse built in 1936. The site was left derelict after the company closed the factory in 1967, but was reopened in 1977 when it was leased by Greenwich London Borough Council. Once reopened, the site hosted football, hockey, rugby and athletics. During the 1980s it was the home ground of Thamesmead. Honours
