Walthamstow is the debut album by English boy band East 17. The album entered the UK Albums Chart at number 1 on 27 February 1993 and contains three UK top-10 singles: their debut single "House of Love", released in 1992 (No. 10), third single "Deep" (No. 5), and sixth single "It's Alright" (No. 3).

British boyband contemporaries Take That's Take That & Party peaked at number two in the UK the previous month, 20 weeks after that album's release. With both albums achieving huge commercial success at the same time this period (early 1993) signalled the start of boyband mania in the UK.

The album was certified Platinum in the UK.
