Former Bradford City striker Mark Danks fired Hednesford into a fifth-minute lead, only for Bert Brayley to equalise for Hornchurch just before the interval.

Veteran defender Chris Brindley, who returned for a third spell at his hometown club last summer, restored Hednesford's lead midway through the second half.

With just 11 minutes left Danny McGhee sealed victory for the Dr Martens League Premier Division side with a third goal.
