Granuaile was first founded in 1935 and was predominantly a gaelic football team competing in Hertfordshire. Throughout the following years the club strayed away from football and concentrated on hurling. During the sixties and seventies Granuaile competed in Hertfordshire with huge success winning numerous League, Championship and Miller cup titles.

Whilst competing in Hertfordshire was very rewarding for Granuaile, the club had their eye on bigger spoils and games, ie. the London League and Championship. The standard of hurling was improving every year due to the arrival of young men from Ireland and Granuaile wished to capitalise on this and compete in London.

In December 1988, after the club had competed for many years in the Hertfordshire league and championship, four men decided to rejuvenate Granuaile Hurling Club and push for inclusion in the London league and Championship, where the competition and standard was far superior to anywhere else in Britain.
