Nije bio komercijalno uspješan kao mnogi njegovi suvremenici, iako je imao podosta pjesama koje su ušle na top-ljestvice. Unatoč tome mnogo je utjecao na Oi! i street punk. Ime ovog sastava navodno dolazi od dijela zidnog grafita kojeg je njihov utemeljitelj Jimmy Pursey ugledao na nekom zidu. Grafit je izvorno glasio |Walton & Hersham '69 no dio je izblijedio. Odnosio se na nogometni klub Walton & Hersham FC koji je 1969. godine osigurao ulazak u Athenian League, englesku amatersku nogometnu ligu koja obuhvaća klubove iz Londona i okolice.

Sastav je djelovao od 1976. do 1980. te od 1989. do danas. Članovi su Jimmy Pursey, Dave Parsons, Dave Tregunna i Mark Cain. U sastavu su nekad bili Mat Sargent, Al Campbell, Billy Bostick, Alby Maskell, Neil Harris, Ricky Goldstein, Andy Prince, Tim V i Ian Whitewood.
